Now prepare a mixture of capers (previously rinsed), parsley and lemon zest. Mash the potatoes and mackerel with the help of a fork, add the mince and the egg yolk. Mix well and let the mixture rest in the fridge for half an hour. Now the fun part (if you have children, you can involve them in this step): with your hands you shape meatballs. Rounded, oval, as you prefer. In three separate dishes, prepare the flour, breadcrumbs and beaten egg. Roll the meatballs first in the flour, then in the egg, and finally in the breadcrumbs.

With the help of a skimmer, drain them well from the oil and place them in a tray or container covered with kitchen paper, to dry them from the oil. Serve hot.
