The Great Fish Fry

I am not exactly sure the whole story... but there is a wonderful retired minister Rev. Nakhamela who lives near Kalkfeld and is involved with ensuring all the 150 seniors in Kalkfeld get remembered and served by the government and community.  There was to be a Christmas dinner for them and he obtained a donation of fish from one of the fishing companies in Swakopmund.

Their donation turned out to be 45 boxes of uncooked fish "cakes"- enough to serve many times the 150 people.  We got the fish at 5 pm and started preparing it for the next morning.

I got to do the breading.  Helga (yellow), Auntie Sarah (blue stripes) and Auntie Joey (blue flowers) did the frying.

Better and safer to keep me away from the hot oil!

The fish cakes turned out very nice.

We breaded and fried until midnight!

Roche'/OC/ Poplap, Helga's niece (all her names and nicknames) got to be an official taster)

She said it was good!

 
Lulu (Helga's daughter) was our official photographer but she also had a new hairdo she was showing off.

There was enough fish fried to feed all the 150 elders and enough fish donated that they all got to take home ten boxes of five cakes!  A very nice Christmas gift indeed.
