About Cod fish ball
Cod Fish Balls are a popular dish with roots in Portuguese cuisine, often enjoyed as an appetizer or snack. Made from a blend of fresh codfish, mashed potatoes, eggs, minced onion, parsley, and seasonings, these golden, crispy balls are typically deep-fried to achieve their signature texture. They are rich in protein, thanks to the codfish, which is also a good source of omega-3 fatty acids and essential vitamins like B12 and D. However, their deep-fried preparation increases the fat and calorie content, making them less ideal for frequent consumption. Cod Fish Balls can be paired with side salads or baked alternatives for a healthier variation. Simple in ingredients, yet full of flavor, they represent a classic comfort dish while reflecting the culinary traditions of coastal regions. Moderation is recommended to enjoy their nutritional benefits without overindulging in the fried aspect.
