1. Combine the salt cod, onion, garlic, and pepper in a bowl and mix well with a wooden spoon. Add the flour and stir a few times, then beat in the eggs one at a time. Add about 1/2 cup water and stir until a batter forms—it should be a bit thicker than pancake batter, but not much—then stir in the parsley.
2. Let the mixture rest while you put about 3 inches of oil in a deep saucepan and heat it over medium-high to 350°F (a drop of the batter will sizzle energetically but not violently). Using a tablespoon, gently drop spoonfuls of the cod mixture into the oil and fry, turning once, until golden brown, 3 to 5 minutes. Work in batches, taking care not to crowd the fritters.
3. Drain on paper towels and serve with lime wedges or keep in a warm oven until ready to serve.
