Recipe Summary Jamaican Saltfish Fritters (Stamp And Go)
A popular Jamaican appetizer. Just stamp them out in the kitchen, take some for the road and go! Saltcod can be prepared the day before for a quicker cook time. These are also good served with a spicy dipping sauce.Ingredients | Canceled Postage Stamp
6 ounces dried salted cod fish
cold water, to cover
1 cup all-purpose flour
1 teaspoon baking powder
2 teaspoons ground black pepper
½ cup water
1 large tomato, chopped
2 green onions, chopped
vegetable oil for frying
Directions
Soak the cod in cold water overnight to rehydrate it and remove excess salt (or see Cook's Note).
Remove any bones and skin. Flake and shred the fish into small pieces and set aside.
Sift flour, baking powder, and pepper into a large bowl. Add the diced tomatoes, green onions, and flaked cod. Pour in 1/2 cup water and stir until everything is blended.
Heat 1/4 inch of oil in a large heavy skillet over medium heat. When the oil is hot, drop rounded spoonfuls of batter into the skillet. Fry on each side until golden brown and crisp, about 5 minutes per side. Drain on paper towels and serve hot.
If you can't soak the fish overnight, place salt cod in a saucepan. Fill with enough water to cover. Bring to a boil, reduce the heat to a simmer, and cook for 5 minutes. Drain and rinse under cool water. Repeat with fresh water four more times. Taste to check salt level; if the fish is still too salty, repeat.
We have determined the nutritional value of oil for frying based on a retention value of 10% after cooking. The exact amount will vary depending on cooking time and temperature, ingredient density, and the specific type of oil used.
