Fritters

Garlic & Malt Aioli

Method

Fritters

  1. 1

    Prepare the Salt Cod

    Soak the salt cod in cold water for 24 hours, changing the water several times. After soaking, drain and flake the fish into small pieces.

  2. 2

    Mix the Fritter Batter

    In a mixing bowl, combine the flaked salt cod, all-purpose flour, baking powder, and black pepper. Finely chop the green onions and parsley, then add them to the mixture. Stir in the egg until everything is well combined.

  3. 3

    Season the Mixture

    Taste the mixture and add salt if needed, keeping in mind that the salt cod is already salty.

  4. 4

    Heat the Oil

    In a deep pot or frying pan, heat the vegetable oil over medium-high heat until hot.

  5. 5

    Fry the Fritters

    Using a tablespoon, drop spoonfuls of the fritter batter into the hot oil. Fry for about 3-4 minutes on each side or until golden brown. Remove and place on paper towels to drain excess oil.

Garlic & Malt Aioli

  1. 6

    Prepare the Aioli

    In a small bowl, combine mayonnaise, minced garlic, malt vinegar, and lemon juice. Mix well until smooth.

  2. 7

    Season the Aioli

    Taste the aioli and add salt according to your preference.

  3. 8

    Serve

    Serve the hot salt cod fritters with the garlic & malt aioli on the side for dipping.
