Codfish Cakes

Codfish Cakes

• 1 pound salt cod bone-in, soaked
• 4 cups cut-up, peeled potatoes
• 1 egg
• 1 tsp black pepper
• 2 tablespoons grated onion
• 1 tsp dried parsely or 2 tablespoons fresh chopped bread crumbs to coat
• mild oil for frying

Boil Potatoes and cod until tender ( about 25 minutes).

Save ½ cooking liquid.

Debone cod. Mash cod & potatoes together.

Add onion, pepper, parsley, and egg when cool enough to handle.

Add saved cooking liquid (if needed) to improve consistency, so it can be shaped. Blend well.

Use large spoon to scoop and shape “cakes” and roll in bread crumbs.

Fry in hot oil to brown.
