These are delicious. I first tasted them in Kensington Market at a Portugese bakery. Later I saw them at a Tapas Bar. I don't know the Spanish name for them but one of my cheffy buddies got me the recipe.

I'm not sure what went wrong, but my cod and potato tapas turned out really dry. I think I overcooked the fish.

The cod and potato tapas were a bit too salty for my taste. I think I'll use less salt next time.
