• 1 well packed cup of desalted cod
• 2 medium cloves garlic, peeled
• 2 tbs. chopped parsley
• 1 recipe Fritter batter
• ½ cup olive oil for frying
• Salt to taste

Shred cod with fingers. Chop well with garlic and parsley. Add to batter, stir, and salt to taste. (This much may be done a day in advance.)Heat enough olive oil in a large frying pan to cover the bottom to a depth of ¼ inch (about 1 cup). When oil begins to smoke, drop in cod mixture off teaspoon and fry until well browned, turning once. Total frying time will be 10 to 15 minutes. Drain on brown paper before serving.Note: The finer you shred and chop the cod, the smoother the fritters will be. However, some prefer fritters with coarse flakes of cod. It is entirely a matter of taste.
