Cod was a food for poor people, years ago, it is rich of vitamin and minerals properties , now it is became.. a dish not cheap any more but still one of the fish less expensive than others and easy to cook.

Serve 4

Ingredients

2 pounds dried salt cod, rinsed and soaked for 24 hours changing the soaking water often
1/4 cup seasoned flour
extra virgin olive oil
4 large cloves garlic, minced
2½ cups tomato sauce
½ cup fresh parsley, chopped
salt and freshly ground pepper

Method

Clean and dry the soaked cod, cutting it into serving size pieces. Lightly flour the pieces, and place them in a large sauté pan with the olive oil. When the second side of the cod is nearly brown, add the garlic to the pan and let it cook until the fish is nicely browned on both sides. Add the tomato sauce, and cook for about 30 minutes, then add the parsley and adjust the seasonings. I like this with crusty bread and a green salad.
