Return to a simmer for 15 minutes. Remove from heat. Cover. Cool to room temperature. (Recipe may be prepared to this point up to 24 hours ahead of serving. Store cod in liquid in refrigerator.)
- Drain cod, discarding spices and onion. In large bowl and using a fork, flake the cod. Stir in mashed potato, eggs and parsley. Let mixture stand for a half hour before forming fritters.
- In deep fryer, bring oil to 375° F (190° C).
- Form cod mixture into balls 1-1/2 inches (4 cm) across. In batches, fry for 4 minutes or until golden. Drain on paper towels. Serve hot.
