You can cook these pollock patties using several methods. Pan-frying in a skillet with a little oil is a common approach. Baking them in the oven is another option, often at around 375°F (190°C) until they are heated through and golden. Grilling is also possible, though care should be taken to prevent sticking. Ensure the patties are cooked to an internal temperature of 165°F (74°C) for safety. They are best served hot.
