OK so I come from the North East of England where the local chippy stocks a type of fritter with potato and fish in it, we call it a pattie, but I understand that's not the right name for it.

So now I find myself lving in Glasgow and nowhere seems to sell my favourite fish based batterball. Help!

It's not a fish cake as I know it, fish cakes are usually all mushed up and breaded rather than battered, this pattie is layers of fish and potato rather than a mush of the two.

was it just from one chippie? if so probably just home made.
Ready made fish cakes are usually breaded, where chippie home mad ones are battered. Or that's what I've found. Usually both are disgusting from 99% of chippies.

Make it yourself and shallow fry.
