Ingredients

Servings
  • 500 gr salted cod
  • 600 gr tomato sauce
  • 1 glass of white wine
  • 2 tablespoons extra virgin olive oil
  • 2 cloves garlic
  • 1 prig parsley
  • salt as needed
  • pepper as needed

Instructions

  1. First, wash the outside of the dried fish very well and then soak it for at least 36 hours. During this period, change the soaking water every 7 to 8 hours maximum.
  2. After soaking, remove all the water, remove the skin from the cod, and clean it well by removing the bones. At this point, cut the fish to obtain medium-sized cod filets.
  3. Wash the fish again, dry it well, and chop the parsley and garlic.
  4. The time has come to cook the cod. Heat a large and preferably non-stick pan on high heat. Add the oil and once the oil is hot, add the cod.
  5. Cook the cod filets until they are slightly golden on each side.
  6. Next, add the white wine. Add salt, pepper, tomato sauce, cover the pan, and let everything simmer over low heat for about two hours.
  7. A few minutes before the end of cooking, remove the lid and make sure there is no excess water in the sauce. Then add the chopped garlic and parsley.
  8. Remove the pan from the heat and let it rest for a few minutes before serving. Enjoy!
