Hi everyone! Today I'm going to show you how to cook this delicious and healthy dish. Cod has a white, mild flavoured flesh and it is highly consumed in Spain, mainly in the North. A colleague from the Basque Country gave me this recipe years ago.I always use dried salted cod loins whenever I cook this dish in Spain. It's quite difficult to find salted cod where I'm living now, so I've used fresh cod loins instead and the result has been really good.
Ingredients:
(Serves 4)
800 g cod loins or cod fillets
1 red pepper
1 green pepper
1 small onion
2 cloves of garlic
1 tomato
200 ml extra virgin olive oil
150 g wheat flour
Salt to taste
Difficulty and cooking time:
Easy
20 minutes
Method:
First wash the vegetables. Chop the peppers and the onion, peel the garlic and the tomato, then cut the tomato into small pieces.
Put 50 ml of extra virgin olive oil in a saucepan. Add the cloves of garlic and stir fry until golden brown.
Then add the onion, the peppers and the tomato, salt to taste and stir fry for about 15 minutes or until the vegetables are done.
In the meantime salt cod loins to taste.
Coat the cod in wheat flour, shaking off flour excess.
Put the extra virgin olive oil on a frying pan over a medium heat and fry the cod for 1 minute, then turn over and fry the other side for 1 more minute.
Place the cod loins on a dish and save for later.
Put the vegetables in a mixing jug and mix using a blender.
Mix the vegetables until the sauce has an even and thick consistency like this.
Put the resulting sauce on a frying pan over a medium heat. Once the sauce is hot enough add the cod, then reduce heat and simmer for a couple of minutes.
Serve hot covering the cod loins with this sauce. Optionally you can pour a little extra virgin olive oil on top. This would strengthen the flavour of our dish.
I hope you like it!
See you soon,
María
