Mix gently, and fry in butter. Eat.




However, also on the riverside, whitebait still kicking into flour, then into a really hot frypan with a butter oil mix, as they stop kicking, pull out and eat like chips.


And note - no bloody mint sauce any where near! (white bread with butter maybe acceptable)

Have you tried a dash of good homemade mint sauce on whitebait?

It might get the greymouth river taste out of it😆

I mainly just salt and squeeze a bit of lemon on mine. But my wife's homemade mint sauce adds another element to a pattie.

BTW your pattie recipe would come a distant second to mine at the wildfoods festival 😆
