How To Cook: |
|
|
1. Rinse the cod several times in cold water. Place it in a large stainless steel bowl and soak it for 18 to 24 hours in plenty of cold water. Change the water several times.
|
2. Drain the cod and place it in a saucepan and just cover it with fresh water. Bring to a boil and simmer uncovered for 20 minutes. Drain, debone, and flake the cod.
|
3. In a large bowl beat together the olive oil and bread crumbs. Mix very well and then add the cod and the remaining ingredients, except the eggs.
|
4. Mix until well blended and then form into 6 patties, ½ inch by 3½ inches. Pan-fry in a little olive oil until golden brown on both sides. Keep warm in the oven while you poach the eggs.
|
5. Serve each fish cake topped with a poached egg.
