Step 1
Boil the 1 large potato in salted water until fork-tender, about 20 minutes. Drain and let cool slightly.
Step 2
Poach the 1 lb cod in simmering water for 5-7 minutes until it flakes easily. Drain, cool, and flake into a bowl.
Step 3
Mash the potato and mix with the flaked cod, 1 egg, 0.5 cup flour, 1 tsp salt, and 0.5 tsp pepper until well combined.
Step 4
Shape the mixture into 12 small patties or balls. Roll each in 1 cup breadcrumbs to coat evenly.
Step 5
Heat 2 cups vegetable oil in a deep pan to 350°F. Fry the fritters in batches without crowding, turning occasionally, until golden brown and crispy, about 3-4 minutes per batch.
Step 6
Drain on paper towels and serve hot with lemon wedges or aioli if desired.
