Cod Fritters

Cultural Context

Cod fritters, known as 'accras de morue' in Creole, are a beloved snack in the Caribbean, particularly in Guadeloupe. Traditionally made with salted cod, these fritters are a testament to the region's fishing heritage and culinary creativity. They are often enjoyed during festive occasions, served hot and crispy, and can be paired with spicy sauces. Today, variations exist across the Caribbean, reflecting local ingredients and preferences.

1

Desalt the cod fish by submerging it in cold water in the refrigerator for 24 hours, changing the water at least three times.

2

Boil the cod fish, debone it, and crumble it into fine pieces.

3

Chop the scallions, garlic cloves, and spicy pepper, and set aside.

4

In a separate bowl, pour 2½ cups of flour and gradually add 1 cup of water until it reaches pancake batter consistency.

5

Mix in the chopped vegetables and crumbled cod, stirring vigorously to distribute evenly. Season with salt and pepper to taste.

6

Add the yolks from 6 eggs into the mixture and stir.

7

Whip the egg whites until light and fluffy, then fold in two generous dollops into the batter.

8

Divide the batter into cookie dough-size balls and spoon them into the hot oil, frying in batches.

9

Flip the fritters after about a minute to ensure both sides turn golden brown, frying for approximately 2-3 minutes per batch.
