INGREDIENTS (Nutrition)

  • 2 pounds salted cod fish
  • 5 large potatoes, peeled and sliced
  • 3 large onions, sliced
  • 3/4 cup olive oil
  • 2 cloves garlic, minced
  • 1 tablespoon chopped fresh parsley
  • 1 1/2 teaspoons crushed red pepper flakes
  • 1 teaspoon paprika
  • 3 tablespoons tomato sauce

DIRECTIONS

  1. Soak salted cod in cold water overnight or for a few hours. Drain water, repeat. Heat a large pot of water until boiling. Cook cod for 5 minutes; drain and cool, leaving cod in large pieces. Set aside.
