These were good, but I did not like them as well as the other reviewers. I'd really like to give it 3.5 stars but don't have the option. I'm just reviewing the cakes because I did not make the tarter sauce. I followed the recipe exactly and I had trouble with about half of the cakes sticking together. The garlic was nice but to me, it seemed to be missing something. I also think I would have liked it better with a little more potato. I probably will not make again and look for another potato cod cake recipe.
Potato Cod Cakes with Dijon Tartar Sauce
Shape the potato cod cakes up to 8 hours ahead; cover and refrigerate until you are ready to cook them. Have the cod steamed at the market to save time. If you can't find panko, course Japanese breadcrumbs, substitute fresh breadcrumbs. Garnish with flat-leaf parsley sprigs and serve with dijon tartar sauce.
Yield: 6 servings (serving size: 2 cakes and 2 tablespoons sauce)
