My mom cooked us these for breakfast as kids...that is, when we were good! So rarely!
Ingredients:
1/4 lb salt cod fish
1/4 lb flour
1 medium onion
2 medium tomatoes
1 small garlic clove
1/2 teaspoon paprika
2 stalks scallions
1/4 teaspoon hot pepper
Directions:
1. Soak codfish in water overnight to remove excess salt. Use a sharp knife to dice, shred finely, and set aside. Chop and combine onions, garlic, scallion, hot pepper and tomatoes.
2. In a skillet using a small amount of oil, fry the chopped seasoning.
3. Place the codfish in a mixing bowl and add flour and cold water to make a thin batter. Add the fried seasoning and the paprika.
4. Spoon the batter in the an oil heated skillet or deep fryer. Fry until golden brown and crisp on both sides.
5. Drain on paper towels and keep in a dish in a warm oven until ready to serve.
