Ingredients
  

  • 450 g fresh cod fillet (or haddock), skinless
  • 3 tablespoons butter, divided
  • 340 g peeled and cubed potatoes
  • 1/4 cup finely sliced green onions
  • 1/4 cup chopped parsley
  • 2 teaspoons fresh thyme, finely chopped
  • 1/2 teaspoon curry powder
  • 2 teaspoons spicy brown mustard
  • 1/2 cup flour
  • 3 tablespoons canola or vegetable oil

Equipment

  • Large Pot
  • Nonstick Skillet
  • Mixing Bowl
  • Baking Sheet
  • Spatula

Method
 

  1. Preheat your oven to 200°C (400°F) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
  2. Place the cod fillets on the baking sheet, season with salt and pepper, and dot with 1 tablespoon of butter. Bake for 10 minutes, flip, and bake for an additional 8-10 minutes until flaky.
  3. Boil the cubed potatoes in salted water until fork-tender, then drain and let cool slightly. Mash the potatoes in a bowl until smooth but textured.
  4. Crumble the cooled cod into the mashed potatoes, then add green onions, parsley, thyme, curry powder, mustard, and remaining melted butter. Mix gently, being careful not to overmix.
  5. Shape the mixture into discs, lightly coat both sides with flour.
  6. Heat oil in a skillet over medium-high heat and fry the fritters for about 5 minutes per side, or until golden brown. Drain on paper towels.
  7. In a small bowl, whisk together mayonnaise, hot sauce, mustard, and parsley for the spicy mayo. Adjust the spice level as desired.

Notes

For a healthier twist, you can bake the fritters instead of frying them. Lightly spray them with oil and bake at 200°C (400°F) for 20 minutes, flipping halfway through.
If you're out of fresh herbs, feel free to use dried ones—just halve the amount needed.
To enhance the flavors, consider adding a pinch of smoked paprika to the fritter mixture or grate zucchini into the mix for added moisture and fiber.
