1. Peel the potatoes and cut into 2 inch chunks. Boil for 15 minutes or until tender. Drain well. Cool a little then mash together with the butter, until no lumps remain. Then let the potatoes go cold.
2. While the potatoes are cooking and cooling, fry the smoked haddock gently until just cooked. Remove from the pan, blot excess oil with kitchen paper. Let cool, then flake the flesh, picking over for any bones. Let it go cold.
3. Chop the smoked salmon and the crayfish tails into very small pieces.
4. Chop the spring onions finely.
5. Add the haddock, salmon and crayfish to the potato along with the onion. There is no need to add salt as the fish & seafood will be salty enough. Mix well together.
6. Using your hands, form the mash mixture into balls and then into 'patties' about 8.5cm across and just under 2cm thick.
7. Dredge the patties in flour, dip in the beaten egg, then in the breadcrumbs.
8. Shallow fry over a low-medium heat for about 10 minutes, turning once. Move them about a bit. A standard frying pan should take about 8 patties, (see photo) so you can do this in 2 batches.
9. Serve with a generous salad.

  If 16 is too many at once, you can obviously halve the quantities, but I made the recipe as far as the mashed potato/fish mixture stage, cooked 8 cakes one evening, kept the remaining mash mix in the fridge overnight, and cooked another 8 the next evening.
