Peel and quarter potato; cook in boiling salted water for 17 to 20 minutes or until tender. Remove with slotted spoon; drain and press through potato ricer or mash. In same water, poach fillets over medium-low heat for 5 minutes or until fish flakes easily when tested with fork; drain and process in food processor until smooth.
In bowl, combine potato, fish, egg, onion, parsley, dill, mayonnaise, salt, pepper and hot pepper sauce; form into 8 oval patties, 1/2 inch (1 cm) thick. In shallow dish, press patties into crumbs to coat all over; press one end into fish-tail shape.
In large nonstick skillet, heat oil over medium-high heat; cook fish patties for 3 minutes. Using two spatulas, turn fish cakes carefully; cook for 2 to 3 minutes longer or until golden brown, adjusting heat if necessary to prevent burning.
