Ingredients:

1lb- Salted Cod Fish
2- Potatoes (large), peeled & cubed
1 tsp- Old Bay Seasoning
Ground Pepper, to taste
½ Cup- Fresh Parsley, chopped
2- Egg, beaten
1- Onion (large), finely chopped
½ Cup- All-Purpose Flour
¼ Cup- Olive Oil

Directions:

1.    Place the salt cod into a bowl and cover with cold water. Refrigerate for 8 hours. Pour off the water and replace with fresh water every 2 hours. After the fish has soaked for 8 hours, rinse in cold water, and cut into 3-inch sections.
2.    Place the cod and potatoes into a large pot and cover with water. Bring to a boil over high heat, then reduce heat to medium-low, cover, and simmer until the potatoes are tender and the cod flakes easily with a fork (about 20 minutes). Drain and allow it to cool for 10 minutes.
3.    Place the potatoes and cod into a mixing bowl and season with the Old Bay seasoning, pepper, and parsley. Roughly mash the mixture with a potato masher. Mix in the eggs and onion until evenly combined. There should still be pieces of cod and potato in the mixture. Form into golf ball-sized pieces, and roll in the flour. Press between your palms to flatten slightly.
4.    Heat the olive oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Cook the cod cakes in batches until golden and crispy on both sides—about 3 minutes per side.
