How to make Bites of Hake
Boiled the potatoes with the skin until they are soft.
Cut the hake fillets into bite-sized pieces.
In a bowl, mix the boiled potatoes, chopped parsley, salt, and pepper. Rub this mixture over the hake pieces.
Prepare three separate shallow dishes for flour, beaten eggs, and breadcrumbs. Dip each piece of hake first in flour, then in beaten eggs, and finally coat thoroughly with breadcrumbs.
In a deep frying pan, heat the vegetable oil until it reaches 180°C (350°F).
Carefully place the coated hake pieces in the hot oil. Fry them in batches until golden brown, approximately 3-4 minutes per batch.
Remove the fried hake bites and drain them on a plate lined with paper towels.
Serve the hake bites hot with a dipping sauce of your choice.
