Fish Cake ( Pudin de Pescado)

This recipe is one that came to me through my mother. Where she learned it or started to make it, I do not know but I remember it as being always delicious and always accompanied by white rice and a tomato sauce on the side.
I know my mother always tried to use her leftover to create other dishes so many times if there was leftover fish we would have this but other times I know she would start out with fresh or frozen fish. You can use any type of white fish ( cod, tilapia, whiting,etc.) and if you would like to make if special you can add boiled shrimp.
The recipe is as follows:

Four fillets of any white fish ( Pollock, Whiting, Cod, Flounder,etc.)
One medium onion
Two large cloves of garlic
Two or three medium carrots
1/4 cup of bread crumbs
Worcestershire sauce to taste
Salt and pepper to taste
Olive oil and butter to saute cooked fish and veggies
three or four eggs beaten
2 to 3 cups of milk

In a large frying pan add about 2 TBSP of oil and 2 of butter. Saute the diced onion, minced garlic and chopped carrots. When tender and brown add the boiled fish all crumbled. Then add salt,pepper to taste and the Worcestershire sauce. Add the bread crumbs to this mixture and cook for another five minutes or so.
In a bowl mix the eggs and milk well beaten with a pinch of salt. Add the the mixture of the fish.
In a oven proof dish already buttered and pour the fish batter and place in a hot oven of 350 degrees to cook till its done or till when you place a toothpick in it, it will come out clean ( approx. time of cooking is about 30 min.)

Serve with some white rice and a sauce mixture of half mayo and half catchup.
Enjoy, its healthy and delicious!!
