Cod, with Mashed Potatoes

Take the remains of cold cod and the same weight in mashed potatoes, remove the skin and bones from the fish, to every pound of which allow one tea-spoonful of salt, half a tea-spoonful of white pepper, and one or two grains of cayenne; pound all together to a smooth paste, with a little butter, oil, or cream. Place the mixture in a well-buttered dish, roughen the top with a fork, and bake it in a moderate oven. Time to bake, twenty minutes. Probable cost for cod, 8d. per pound. Sufficient for three or four persons.
