If you are not sure how to do this see the Pasteis de Bacalhau recipe. Boil the bacalhau for about 15 minutes, drain, clean and shread it with your hands. In a large bowl beat the eggs and add the flour gradually to create a smooth creamy paste. Add as much milk or water as is needed to create a thick dropping consistency - thicker than pancake mix. Add chopped onion and 2 tablespoons of chopped parsley. Add the bacalhau. Add salt and pepper to taste. Drop a spoonful of the paste at a time into boiling hot vegetable oil. The pataniscas should spread out a little and create flat discs about the diametre of a orange. Fry until golden brown, remove and drain on kitchen paper. Serve with salad and tomato flavored rice.
