Directions
Bacalaitos (Cod Fritters), One of Puerto Rico’s signature dishes It can be main, side dish or just an appetizer The Cod is finely chopped, therefore, the flavor is not so strong Very high in calories but worth having at least two once a year!, Excellent!!! use salted pollock (because that is all I could find My family devoured them within hours, hmm these were ok too greasy for me though! They have an interesting texture cuz of the baking powder, which i liked I think they were better the next day, when i heated them up in the oven and then sprinkled them with vinegar and salt – yummmm Maybe I’ll add some onion to the batter next time or something =)
