Ingredients

2 large potatoes, peeled and halved

1 pound cod fillets, cubed

1 tablespoon butter

1 tablespoon grated onion

1 tablespoon chopped fresh parsley

1 egg

3 tablespoons oil for frying

1/2 tbs thyme

pinch of garlic powder

1 cup white flour

1 tsp paprika

Directions

1. Place the potatoes in a large pot of water, bring the water to a boil.

2. Let the potatoes cook until they are almost tender.

3. Add the fish to the pot and let the fish and potatoes cook until they are both soft.

4. Drain well and transfer the potatoes and fish to a large mixing bowl.

5. Add butter, onion, parsley, garlic powder, thyme, and egg to the bowl; mash the mixture together.

6. Mold the mixture into patties.

7. Use an ice-cream scoop to form uniform balls.

8. Chill the balls in the fridge for an hour, this will blend the flavors and solidify the mixture to avoid crumbling when frying.
