Ingredients
- 500 grams Fresh cod fillets
- 3 tablespoons Olive oil
- 1 medium Onion
- 2 Garlic cloves
- 2 tablespoons Fresh parsley
- 2 large Eggs
- 120 grams Chickpea flour
- 1 teaspoon Baking powder
- 1 teaspoon Salt
- 0.5 teaspoon Black pepper
- 1 Lemon
- 500 milliliters Vegetable oil
Directions
Step 1
Begin by patting the cod fillets dry with a paper towel. Cut them into small pieces and set aside.
Step 2
Heat 1 tablespoon of olive oil in a skillet over medium heat. Finely chop the onion and mince the garlic. Add them to the skillet and sauté until the onion is translucent, about 3-4 minutes. Remove from heat and let cool.
Step 3
In a large mixing bowl, combine the cooled onion and garlic mixture with chopped parsley. Add in the cod pieces and mix well.
Step 4
In a separate bowl, beat the eggs and then add them to the cod mixture. Stir to combine.
Step 5
Mix together the chickpea flour and baking powder. Gradually add this to the cod mixture, stirring until a thick batter forms.
Step 6
Season the mixture with salt and black pepper. Squeeze the juice of one lemon into the mixture and stir to incorporate.
Step 7
Heat the vegetable oil in a deep frying pan or pot over medium-high heat. Once the oil is hot, use a tablespoon to drop fritter batter into the oil, being careful not to overcrowd the pan.
Step 8
Fry each fritter for about 3 minutes on each side, or until golden brown and cooked through. Use a slotted spoon to remove the fritters from the oil and place them on a paper towel-lined plate to drain any excess oil.
Step 9
Serve the fritters hot, garnished with extra chopped parsley and lemon wedges on the side.
