Walleye Cakes

This is a modification of a recipe that appeared in Walleye
Insider magazine. Since I didn't care for some of the ingredients, I
experimented and this is what I came up with. The Guinea pigs that I
tested it on loved it!
1 lb. walleye fillets
2 cups of mayonnaise
4 eggs
bag Frozen shredded hash brown potatoes (thawed)
8 oz. Finely shredded sharp cheddar cheese
(or your favorite)
1 cup chopped onion
(I used red onions, use whatever type you prefer)
1 cup chopped green peppers
3+ cups of italian bread crumbs
Seasonings (I used garlic, salt, pepper and a little cayenne)
Oil or butter
Cook the walleye in simmering water until it flakes (about 5 minutes), and
cool. Mix the flaked walleye, mayonnaise, hash browns, cheese, onion, green pepper
and add the eggs.
Add the Seasoned bread crumbs until the mixture is thick enough to form into
patties.
Cook in butter or oil over medium-high heat 3 or 4 minutes per side until golden
brown.
Don't be afraid to experiment. Alter the ingredients to fit you own
taste. If you like more hash browns or more walleye, change it! As
long as you can form a patty out of it, it'll work!
