Please share your favorite TNT recipe for cod fish cakes.
Mom used to make them when I was a kid. She used a box (that was the same size and shape of a box of pudding/jello mix) dry/flaked cod (looked like saw dust) which is no longed available. I really want to make cod fish cakes for Good Friday. I have never made them before. So I am seeking your advice.
Lots of questions:
Cod fillets or cod steak? Does it make a difference?
Do you use mashed potatoes?
Do you poach the cod in milk or water (seasoned or not seasoned) then drain, flake/mash and add to the mashed potatoes?
Or do you cook the cod with the potatoes then drain and mash together?
Do you dredge the cod cakes in egg/flour or egg/bread crumbs (or no egg just flour or crumbs) before frying?
Do you refrigerate or freeze cakes before frying for ease in flipping them?
Thank you so much in advance.
