Preparation steps
1.
Soak cod for at least 12 hours in cold water, changing water several times. Then cook fish for about 15 minutes in boiling water. Remove, let cool slightly, remove skin and bones and grind. Peel potatoes, rinse and cook 30 minutes in boiling salted water, drain, let dry and press through a ricer. Peel onion and chop finely. Add potatoes, ground cod, onion and freshly chopped parsley to a bowl and mix thoroughly.
2.
Stir in wine and season with salt, pepper and freshly grated nutmeg. Mix in eggs one at a time to create a moldable dough. If necessary, add flour. Using 2 tablespoons, scoop fritters from the fish mixture and fry until golden brown in hot oil. Remove with a slotted spoon, drain on paper towels and serve lukewarm.
