SALT COD POTATO SCONES

250g salt cod
50g fluffy potatoes
50g butter and a knob of butter for frying.
175g plain flour
Cooked, shelled squat lobsters
Milk
3 bay leaves
6 peppercorns
1 bunch thyme
2 cloves garlic
Vegetable oil for frying.
Black pepper
Salt

Soak salt cod for at least 24 hours, changing the water at least twice.
Once it has been soaking, place the cod into a large pan, with enough milk to cover the fish.
Add bay leaves, garlic, thyme and peppercorns.
Take it to the boil and leave to cool in the pan.
Boil the potatoes with the skins. Peel when cool and return to the pan to dry out, on low heat.
Break up the potatoes with a wooden spoon. You can mash the potatoes or use a ricer, if a smoother consistency is preferred.
Add the butter and mix using a fork, adding the flour gradually.
Season with black pepper and a pinch of salt.
Flake the cod into the mixture, making sure all the bones are removed.
Dust the the mix with flour before placing on a floured table and roll out the dough.
Cut the dough into large rounds and set aside, ready for frying.
Melt a knob of butter in a heavy based frying pan and fry the rounds, until golden.
Cut the rounds into triangles, add a dollop of mayonnaise and arrange squat lobster on top, to serve.
