Patanisca is a traditional Portuguese dish originating from the coastal regions, particularly popular in the area of Lisbon. It is made by frying a batter of salted cod fish (bacalhau), eggs, flour, parsley, and onions, seasoned with salt and pepper. These fritters boast a crispy exterior and a tender interior, highlighting the flavors of the prized salted cod, an iconic ingredient in Portuguese cuisine. While Patanisca is rich in protein from the fish and eggs, it can be calorie-dense due to the frying process and the use of flour. The parsley adds a touch of freshness and some micronutrients like vitamin K. For a lighter alternative, baking instead of frying reduces oil content while maintaining much of the dish’s flavor. Pataniscas are often paired with a vibrant salad or rice, offering a balance of textures and nutrients in a meal.
