1. Peel the potatoes, slice them into eight pieces, and place them in a pot of water. 

2. Boil the potatoes on the stovetop with the lid on.

3. Peel and dice an onion. Remove any layers that have gone bad.

4. Fry the cod. Once cooked, add onions and savory on top.

5. Check on the potatoes. If you can easily push through the potatoes with a fork, then they are done. 

6. Drain the water from the boiled potatoes.

7. Mash the potatoes. Once mashed, add the butter and blend in with the potatoes.

8. Add the cod, onion, and savory mixture into the mashed potatoes and mix it all together.

9. Fill a bowl with flour to cover the fishcakes.  

10. Take a handful of the cod, onion, savory, and potato mixture and make it into a small cake.

11. Cover the fishcake with flour and place each in a dish until all fishcakes are made.

12. Turn on the stovetop to medium heat.

13. Coat a pan with oil.

14. Place the fishcakes onto the hot pan and sprinkle flour on top of each cake, if they seem to have lost some flour. 

15. Once browned then flip over the fishcakes and add more oil if needed.

16. Once both sides are fried then put the fishcakes into a baking dish and put it in the oven to keep warm.

17. When all fishcakes are ready, then serve the fishcake, on a plate and they will be ready to eat.
