Bacalaitos (Cod fish fritters)

There is nothing like some good Puerto Rican street food.  Bacalaitos is easy to make and so darn good.   I was always hunting down the food trucks to get these in my neighborhood , but now I know how to make them and can have them anytime I want.  I wanted to make sure when making these that it was the traditional Puerto Rican way.   I hope you try and enjoy these.
