RED EMPEROR, POTATO CAKE AND BASIL PESTO

Here's an interesting way to do potatoes. Boil whole unskinned Dutch cream or Bintje potatoes until tender. Place a ring mould on a flat surface and use a flat-bottomed jar slightly smaller in diameter than the ring to flatten each potato into a cake. Heat some ghee or butter in a pan. Slide a spatula under the potato and ring and place in the pan. Use the jar to hold the potato down while you slide the ring off. Cook the potato cake about ten minutes, then carefully turn and cook the other side. I cooked these in the same very large sautée pan in which I did the fish - also in butter.
