Ingredients
Directions
Soak cod in cold water to rehydrate it and remove excess salt, 8 hours to overnight.
Remove bones and skin from fish. Flake and shred fish into small pieces; set aside.
Sift flour, pepper, and baking powder into a large bowl. Add tomatoes, green onions, and flaked cod. Pour in 1/2 cup water; stir until well blended.
Heat 1/4 inch of oil in a large, heavy skillet over medium heat.
Drop rounded spoonfuls of batter into the skillet; fry in hot oil until golden brown and crisp, about 5 minutes per side. Drain on paper towels and serve hot.
Recipe Tip
If you can't soak the fish overnight, place it into a saucepan and add enough water to cover. Bring to a boil, then reduce the heat and simmer for 5 minutes. Drain and rinse under cool water. Repeat with fresh water four more times. Taste to check the salt level; if the fish is still too salty, repeat.
We have determined the nutritional value of oil for frying based on a retention value of 10% after cooking. The exact amount will vary depending on cooking time and temperature, ingredient density, and the specific type of oil used.
