How To Cook: |
|
|
1. Soak the codfish in cold water for 2 hours (or bring the water to a rolling boil and boil for 5 minutes to remove excess salt quickly).
|
2. Drain and then clean the codfish of any skin and bones. Flake or finely chop and set aside.
|
3. Sift the flour and baking powder into a medium size bowl.
|
4. Whisk together the milk and egg in another bowl, then combine with the flour mixture.
|
5. Add all the seasoning ingredients and flaked codfish, and mix into a sticky batter. Taste and add salt and pepper, if necessary.
|
6. Heat the oil in a deep fryer or a large, heavy frying pan, and then add the batter by the tablespoon.
|
7. Fry each side until golden brown, turning occasionally and pressing flat with a spatula.
|
8. Serve hot as an appetizer, snack, or side dish.
