    1/4 pound salt cod or 1 tablespoon cod paste or 1 tablespoon fish flakes
    1 to 1 1/4 pounds potatoes
    2 tablespoons milk
    1/4 cup crushed crackers

    Recipe



    If you are using salt cod, soak the fish for 24 hours in a bowl of water.

    Change the water every 6 to 8 hours. Cover the fish with water in a pan and simmer for 10 to 15 minutes. Drain and break with a fork; cool. Peel, dice and boil potatoes until cooked. Drain, mash with 2 tablespoons milk and
    cool. In a large bowl, combine salt cod (or cod paste or fish flakes), potatoes, crackers, eggs and black pepper and make into thin, palm-sized balls.

    Flatten slightly and cook in a pan filled with 1/4 inch of vegetable oil.

    Brown cakes on each side and drain. Replace diminished oil between batches.

    To serve, place each coddie on a saltine cracker, top with yellow mustard ,and place another saltine on the top. Serve either warm or at room temperature.
