Codfish Cakes

Step 1

Soften the scallions in the butter. Combine with the cod and potatoes in a large mixing bowl. Add the parsley, mustard and eggs and season to taste with salt and pepper.

Step 2

Shape the cod mixture into small patties about three inches across and roll them in bread crumbs. Put on a rack to dry for 15 minutes.

Step 3

Heat the oil in a frying pan. Cook the patties three or four at a time, so they do not crowd the pan, until they are lightly browned on both sides. Drain on paper towels and keep them warm in a low oven until ready to eat. Serve with lemon quarters.
