These cod cakes come together from flaked, fully cooked cod folded with breadcrumbs, egg, and finely chopped spinach, then pan-seared until golden on both sides and cooked all the way through — a comforting alternative to the usual baked fish fillet. A creamy sweet potato mash underneath rounds out the plate nicely.

Cod is a mild, low-mercury fish, and pairing it here with spinach means this dinner carries real folate and iron alongside its protein, which is why it's tagged for pregnancy support. The egg used to bind the cakes is fully cooked through in the pan, never left runny.

Serve with a wedge of lemon and a simple green salad for a full, satisfying meal.
