Ingredients

  • 5 potatoes, washed

  • 450 g (1 lb) cod, fresh or frozen and thawed 

  • 10 ml (2 tsp) olive oil 

  • ½ onion, diced

  • 125 ml (½ cup) fresh parsley, finely chopped 

  • 3 eggs

  • 60 ml (¼ cup) thinly sliced chives

  • 60 ml (¼ cup) whole wheat flour 

  • 4-5 garlic cloves, minced 

  • 15 ml (1 tbsp) margarine 

  • 10 ml (2 tsp) Dijon mustard

  • Pepper, to taste 

Preparation

  1. Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C). Prepare a lined baking sheet
  2. In a medium saucepan, boil the potatoes until tender, about 15-20 minutes. 
  3. While the potatoes are boiling, heat the oil in a medium pan, then lightly fry the cod with a pinch of salt, about 3-5 minutes. 
  4. In a large bowl, mix all the ingredients together until the mixture is mostly smooth. 
  5. Using an ice cream scoop, scoop out the mixture and shape it into patties on the baking sheet. Bake for 45 minutes, or until crispy. 
  6. Serve with a homemade dip of Greek yogurt topped with fresh parsley and pepper to taste. 

Notes

Cod cakes can be refrigerated 2-3 days without the toppings (yogourt and herbs), can be frozen 3 months
