Pike for tea Dave. I think Kev's got the recipe.

Do I understand you intend killing the Pike other anglers have returned to the lake, so you can have the pleasure of catching them again.?

Short sighted to the extreme if so!!

I did see the smiley by the way, but thought it inappropriate.

Stuffed Pike in a Fresh Corn Cake Batter

 

Ingredients

 

Corn Cake Batter:

 

• 1 1/2 Cups Biscuit Mix

• 1 Egg

• 1 1/3 Cup Milk

• 2 Cups Fresh or Frozen Sweet Corn

• 1/2 Cup Uncle Buck's Seasoned Corn Meal Breading Mix

 

Cheese Filling:

 

• Package Cream Cheese, Softened

• 1/2 Tsp. Cajun Spice

• 1 Cup Finely Shredded Sharp Cheddar

• 1 Tsp. Dried Basil

 

For the batter, combine ingredients in blender. Process, but stop while corn is still lumpy.

 

Then make the cheese filling. Mix together all ingredients. Chill until mixture begins to firm up again somewhat.

 

Thinly slice pike fillets to cook quickly. Place a couple of generous spoonfuls of filling in middle of each piece of fish, and fold fish over filling. Keep ready beside stove.

 

Heat heavy pan on stove. Add some oil for frying. Pour a portion of batter in hot pan. Place filled fillet on batter, and top with more batter. Cook until batter begins to brown. Turn very gently and cook other side. Fish inside cakes should be cooked, if sliced thinly enough.

All local ingredients welcome including any tarts that are passed their sell by date
