Ingredients for 4 portions

  • Salt cod (cod) 600 g

  • Taggiasca olives 60 g
  • Capers 10 g
  • Anchovy fillet 1
  • Potatoes 160 g

  • Extra virgin olive oil 2 tbsp (20 g)
  • White wine 100 ml
  • Garlic clove 1
  • Salt to taste
  • Pepper to taste
  • Parsley to taste

Preparation

1.

Soak the salt cod (if salted) in plenty of water for around two days, changing the water three or four times a day. If the fish is frozen, defrost it in the fridge (0°-4°C) the previous day.
2.

Once it is ready, drain the fish, cut into bite-sized pieces, carefully removing the bones, and leave to dry.
3.

Peel, deseed, and chop the tomatoes.
4.

Wash the parsley and chop it with the garlic and half an onion.
5.

Peel and dice the potatoes.
6.

Put a casserole dish on the hob with a little olive oil. Once heated, add the tomatoes, salt and pepper and bring to the boil.
7.

Mix in the capers, anchovy fillets, olives and potatoes and cook on a medium heat for around 15 minutes.
8.

Separately sear the fish in a different (possibly non-stick) pan with a little oil until it has formed a crust and turned golden.
9.

Then dry the salt cod with kitchen paper and arrange it in the tomato sauce.

Carbon footprint



To limit our impact on the environment, we advise you to remain within 1 kg CO2-equivalent per meal, including all the courses you eat. Bear in mind that plant-based dishes are more likely to have a low environmental impact.

Even though some of our suggestions exceed the recommended 1 kg CO2-equivalent per meal, that doesn't mean you should never make them; it's the overall balance that counts. Regularly eating a healthy and eco-friendly diet in the long term offsets even the dishes with the most impact, as long as you don't make them too often.
