ROASTED COD AND POTATOES



Roasted Cod and Potatoes image

When one of my daughters, Emma, was young, there was a time when her main passion in life was potatoes, especially crispy ones. For one special occasion, I produced a classic French dish, potatoes Anna, in which potatoes are thin-sliced, drenched in butter, carefully layered and roasted until golden. This was an error, of course; potatoes Anna is a pain to make. Naturally, the demand was unrelenting thereafter. So, in an attempt to make the effort more rational, I cut down on the butter, cut short the preparation time by enlisting the aid of the broiler during the last few minutes of cooking, and decided to turn this one dish into something approaching an entire meal. In the last few minutes, before the potatoes were cooked through, I placed a thick fillet of fish on top of the potatoes. The result is a simple weeknight dish that I now make routinely, and one that even seems to impress the occasional guest.

Time 1h

Yield 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 4

4 or 5 medium potatoes, 2 pounds or more
6 tablespoons extra-virgin olive oil or melted butter
Salt and freshly ground black pepper to taste
1 1/2 pounds cod or other fillets, about 1-inch thick (skinned), in 2 or more pieces

Steps:

  • Heat oven to 400 degrees. Peel potatoes, and cut them into slices about 1/8-inch thick (a mandoline comes in handy here). Toss the potatoes in an 8-by-12-inch or similar size baking pan with 4 tablespoons of the oil or butter. Season the potatoes liberally, spread them evenly and place the pan in the oven.
  • Cook for about 40 minutes, checking once or twice, until the potatoes are tender when pierced with a thin-bladed knife and have begun to brown on top. Remove the potatoes from the oven. Turn on the broiler, and adjust the rack so that it is 4 to 6 inches from the heat source.
  • Top the potatoes with the fish, drizzle with the remaining oil or butter and sprinkle with some more salt and pepper. Broil until the fish is done, 6 to 10 minutes, depending on its thickness (a thin-bladed knife will pass through it easily). If at any point the top of the potatoes begins to burn, move the pan a couple of inches farther away from the heat source.

Categories     Breakfast

Time 12h

Yield 6-10 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 18

2 lbs salt cod fish
5 lbs potatoes (peeled, washed, and halved or quartered, depending on the size)
6 -10 whole eggs
6 -10 bananas
3 avocados, pitted and sliced
1 (14 ounce) can stewed tomatoes
3 bermuda onions, thinly sliced (or other good onion)
1 garlic clove, minced
margarine, to taste (or olive oil)
salt, to taste
pepper, to taste
italian seasoning, to taste (optional)
4 -6 bermuda onions, thinly sliced (or other good onion)
1 garlic clove, minced
margarine (to cover or to taste)
salt, to taste
pepper, to taste
dried parsley, to taste (optional)

Steps:

  • Soak cod in pot of water overnight or for atleast 10 hours.
  • In the morning, about an hour before you want to eat; put the fish on to boil. Make sure the water just covers it.
  • Boil the cod 2 or 3 times depending on how much you like salt, and make sure you change the water each time you boil it.
  • Drain the cod and add the potatoes to the pot. Of course you'll need a large pot. Add enough water to cover and put the pot on to boil.
  • Add the eggs 10-15 minutes before you're ready to take the pot off the stove.
  • It's done when the fish flakes, the potatoes are soft (not overdone), and the eggs are hard boiled.
  • Peel the eggs and plop back in the water to keep warm.
  • To serve varies with almost every Bermudian!
  • The main way to serve is to use a slotted spoon and add how much fish, potato and egg you want to your plate.
  • Peel a banana and add that to one side of your food. Get a few slices of avocado and add that to the other side.
  • When I was little I used to mash the fish, potato and egg together with mayonnaise or margarine.
  • You can of course just leave it all whole and eat with melted butter which is what I do now that I'm older! It may sound strange but it is really delicous when you get a bit of everything onto your fork!
  • The other thing is the sauces. It's all fattening, which is why most people eat this only once a week!
  • You can make a tomato sauce or a butter sauce to pour over the top.
  • (Some people make an egg sauce, but I never learned how to make it because I figured I alread had egg on my plate!) :-).
  • If you're using a sauce, start making it when you put the eggs on to boil.
  • Tomato Sauce:.
  • Just saute the onion and garlic in margarine or olive oil until the onion is soft. The amount of oil or margarine depends on you.
  • Add the stewed tomatoes and season to taste. Simmer for about 10 minutes Spoon desired amount over your codfish and potato.
  • Butter Sauce:.
  • Saute the onion and garlic in the margarine until the onion is soft.
  • Adjust the amount of onion and margarine to your liking. (I like more margarine than most because I hate dry food.) :-).
  • Season to taste and simmer for a couple of minutes.
  • If you'd like to try the egg sauce; it's pretty much just sauteed onions in butter with some mashed, hard boiled egg added to it. Season it to taste, the amounts of the ingredients are left to you!
  • Pour desired amount over your codfish and potato and enjoy!

BERMUDA SALT COD FISH BREAKFAST



Bermuda Salt Cod Fish Breakfast image

This dish is one of many in Bermuda that is loved by the locals, but avoided like the plague by the majority of foreigners, as many visitors almost seem to be unwilling to try anything 'different'. As it takes a while to prepare, it is usually served on a weekend or special occasion, such as the annual Cup Match celebration or Bermuda Day. On these days you can often walk down the streets and smell this being prepared in many kitchens.

Tips:

  • For a crispier coating on the cod, consider using a mixture of panko breadcrumbs and grated Parmesan cheese. This will create a golden-brown crust that is both flavorful and crunchy.
  • To ensure that the cod is cooked evenly, use a meat thermometer to check the internal temperature. The fish should be cooked to an internal temperature of 145°F (63°C).
  • If you don't have buttermilk, you can make your own by combining 1 cup of milk with 1 tablespoon of lemon juice or vinegar. Let the mixture sit for 5 minutes before using it in the recipe.
  • For a more flavorful sauce, try using a combination of mayonnaise, sour cream, and Greek yogurt. This will create a creamy and tangy sauce that is perfect for dipping the cod and potatoes.
  • If you are short on time, you can skip the step of soaking the cod in buttermilk. However, this step will help to tenderize the fish and make it more flavorful.

Conclusion:

Bermuda Cod Fish and Potatoes is a classic dish that is enjoyed by people of all ages. It is a simple and easy-to-make recipe that is perfect for a weeknight meal. The cod is flaky and tender, while the potatoes are crispy and golden-brown. The creamy sauce adds a delicious flavor to the dish. This recipe is sure to become a favorite in your household.
