Codfish Fritters

Codfish Fritters have basic ingredients such as egg, flour, milk, oil and of course the codfish but the herbs and spices tend to vary.  Some recipes call for 1 chopped Scotch Bonnet and another recipe may use a table spoon of hot sauce.  There is a lot of room for creative expression.

  and washed with lime and water
