Cod-fish cakes are one of the most popular dishes in Portugal. It's usually served as a starter, but is many times served, in common households as the main dish, accompanied by some white rice or rice with tomatoes and some veggies. Here is how you make them.
Ingredients
750g salted cod-fish (rehydrated as explained in the previous post)
1.2kg potatoes peeled
4 eggs
1 medium onion
parsley
pepper
Preparation
Boil the potatoes with the cod. After the potatoes are cooked, the cod should be as well, drain the water. Take the cod and "clean" it of all skin and bones, and place in a cloth, making a ball, and compress and crush until the cod is shredded.
After draining the potatoes, make sure that they are dry and mash them.
Mix the potatoes and the cod together with the onions and the parsley to make a paste. Season with the pepper. Incorporate the eggs next and mix everything until the eggs are completely undone.
Shape the cakes with two soup spoons (or just use your hands) and fry them in oil until they are golden brown.
Enjoy.
