Step by Step guide

Step 1

Place the cod in a bowl of water and let it soak for several hours, changing the water and rinsing off the salt that settles at the bottom.

Step 2

Then drain the water, dry the cod, and place it in a pot along with the unpeeled potatoes. Cover everything with cold water and bring to a boil. Reduce the heat and cook for 20-30 minutes until the potatoes are soft.

Step 3

Remove the fish and drain the water. Peel the potatoes and mash them while they are still warm. Remove the skin and bones from the fish and flake it with a fork. Mix the fish with the potatoes and add the egg yolks.

Step 4

Heat 1 tablespoon of oil in a small skillet, add the garlic clove, and sauté for a few minutes until it turns golden brown. Then crush the clove in a mortar with a pinch of salt and add it to the puree.

Step 5

Whip the egg whites with a pinch of salt. Gently fold them into the puree. With damp hands, shape the croquettes.

Step 6

Heat the remaining oil in a deep skillet to 356°F, and fry the croquettes until a crispy golden crust forms. Drain excess oil on paper towels and serve immediately with tomato sauce.
