Flaxseed meal can bind ingredients while being vegan.

Peel and dice 2 medium potatoes and place them in a pot to boil.

Wash and soak salted fish in water, then boil it until it is steamed out.

Prepare other ingredients by adding dry thyme, scallions, sweet peppers, 2 weary weary peppers, onions, cilantro, broad leaf thyme, basil, parsley, and fine thyme to a bowl.

Lightly pulse the herbs and vegetables to break them up while keeping them intact.

Drain the boiled salted fish, flake it, and remove any bones.

Add the flaked fish to the bowl with the blended seasoning mix.

Drain the boiled potatoes and let them sit on the heat to evaporate excess water, then mash them.

Combine the mashed potatoes with the salted fish mixture, adding Old Bay seasoning, black pepper, and garlic paste.

Add 1 egg to the mixture to bind everything together and mix with your hands.

In a separate bowl, add all-purpose flour and season it with Old Bay seasoning.

Shape the mixture into oval cakes and roll them in the seasoned flour, setting them aside.

Preheat oil in a frying pan over medium to low heat.

Carefully drop the cakes into the oil, ensuring not to overcrowd the pan.

Gently turn the cakes in the oil to achieve a golden brown color, keeping the heat medium to low throughout the frying process.

Once fried, remove the cakes from the oil and drain on paper towels.
