Here, fishy Fishy...

In June we went fishing with my dad and stepmom.  My son caught a 25 pound lake trout that we are still working on eating.

My boy likes to fish but he's not a big fan of the taste of fish by itself.  So he agreed to a fish sandwich patty experiment.  I've never made a fish sandwich patty before.  I've always bought them.

I found this recipe and decided that trout should be just as good as cod.  I don't really have any knowledge of fish but you don't learn whether it works if you don't try it out, right?

I needed to make this AIP friendly so I substituted sweet potatoes for the regular potatoes.  I used coconut flour seasoned with a little salt for the breading.

No pepper since I am off of nightshades right now.

I also didn't have a lot of time to be standing over the stove frying so I decided to oven fry.  I set the oven to 375 degrees, made sure my cookie sheet was greased (coconut oil) and drizzled melted coconut oil over the top of each pressed down patty.  After 10-15 minutes, I flipped each patty once and put them back in.  After another 10-15 minutes, I pulled out my tray of golden brown fish-wich patties.

It turned out that the trout was just fine in this recipe and so were all the other modifications I made.  I ate mine with a little salt and the boy had his on a hamburger bun.
