• 1 lbsalt cod, flaked
• 1 cupflour
• 1 onion, minced
• 1 tsphot pepper sauce
• 1 bunchparsley

1. 1

   Pat the salt cod completely dry — moisture is the enemy of crisp.

2. 2

   Dredge in flour then onion, pressing so the coating grips.

   Heat 2 inches of oil to 350°F and fry in small batches so the temperature holds.

   Fry until deep golden and cooked through, then drain on a rack — never paper towels.

5. 5

   Season with salt the second it leaves the oil and serve Bajan Fish Cakes hot.
