Preparation
Place medium pots with water and salt over medium heat.
Boil the fresh cod in a pot until it is cooked (7-10 minutes)
In the other pot boil the potatoes with peel until well cooked.
Crumble the fish with a fork or rag.
Remove the skin of the potatoes and mash with a tendon.
In a deep bowl mix the cod, the potato, the olive oil, the onion, the parsley, the garlic and the egg. Season with salt and pepper.
With a spoon, make balls with the mixture and place on a baking sheet with waxed paper. Refrigerate for 1 hour to make it easier when frying.
Heat the vegetable oil in a medium skillet until very hot and bubbly when you put a croquette on it.
Fry the croquettes until golden brown (about 3 minutes) and remove from the oil. Place on blotting paper towels to absorb the remaining oil.
Serve the croquettes accompanied by slices of lemon.
