How to prepare it step by step?
Preparation
- Shred the cod carefully and remove any bones that may remain.
- Finely chop the garlic and fresh parsley to enhance the flavor of the cod.
- In a large bowl, mix the flour, baking powder, garlic, parsley, and crumbled cod.
- Add the egg and, little by little, the water or milk, mixing well until you obtain a thick and homogeneous dough.
- Let the dough rest for 15 minutes for the yeast to act and all the flavors to integrate.
- Heat plenty of oil in a frying pan or deep fryer to 180°C (356°F). Fry portions of dough with a spoon until golden and crispy on the outside, about 3-4 minutes per side.
- Drain the fritters on absorbent paper to remove excess oil and serve hot, accompanied by aioli or lemon sauce if desired.
