Cooking Instructions

  1. 1

    Prepare the Cod

    Soak the salt cod in water for 24 hours, changing the water several times. Once rehydrated, drain, remove any skin and bones, and shred the fish.

  2. 2

    Cook the Potatoes

    Peel and boil the potatoes until tender. Drain and mash them in a bowl.

  3. 3

    Mix Ingredients

    In a large mixing bowl, combine the shredded cod, mashed potatoes, finely chopped onion, minced garlic, eggs, chopped parsley, and black pepper. Mix until well combined.

  4. 4

    Form the Cakes

    Shape the mixture into small patties or cakes and dust with flour.

  5. 5

    Fry the Cakes

    In a large skillet, heat the olive oil over medium heat. Fry the cod cakes until golden brown on both sides, about 3-4 minutes per side.

  6. 6

    Serve

    Remove the cakes from the skillet and drain on paper towels. Serve warm with lemon wedges.
