2 (4 ounce) cod fillets
salt to taste
1 tablespoon vegetable oil
4 potatoes, grated
2 shallots, grated
1 egg
1 tablespoon chopped fresh parsley
1 pinch ground nutmeg
2 tablespoons butter, cut into small pieces

Steps:

Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Line a baking sheet with aluminum foil.
Season cod with salt on both sides. Heat oil in a large skillet and cook cod until lightly browned, 2 to 3 minutes per side.
