Hapuupuu Potato Cakes with Dill Aioli

  • 6 potatoes, coarsely grated
  • 16 ounces Hapuupuu (Hawaiian Sea Bass), baked and deboned (substitute with any cooked white fish)
  • 2-1/2 tablespoons fresh parsley
  • 1/4 cup Maui onion, finely diced
  • 1/4 cup fresh sweet corn
  • 1 tablespoon lime juice
  • 1 clove garlic, grated
  • 1-1/2 teaspoon salt (taste)
  • 1/2 teaspoon white pepper

  • Vegetable oil (light vegetable oil to fry)
  • 1/2 cup plain low-fat yogurt
  • 1/4 cup light mayonnaise
  • 4 tablespoons dill herb paste

  1. Gently squeeze grated potatoes and combine in a bowl with fish, parsley, onion, sweet corn, lime juice, garlic, salt, and white pepper.
  2. Add 1 to 1-1/2 cups of instant potato flakes.
  3. Use an ice cream scoop for potato mixture; shape fish cakes by hand.
