astray recipes: Salted cod

Categories: None
Yield: 1 Servings

Measure	Ingredient
1¼	To 1.5 lb
1 small	Green pepper -- coarsely
	Chopped
1 small	Onion -- coarsely chopped
6 larges	Garlic cloves -- coarsely
	Minced
1 tablespoon	Capers
1 medium	Red potato
	Peeled, steamed and cubed
¼	" square
1 bunch	Parsley -- finely chopped
1	28oz can
2 cups	Homemade de-fatted, low salt
	Chicken stock
	Olive oil, salt, pepper
	Piece of salted cod fish
	Peeled, chopped tomatoes

Put cod fish in cold water. Change water twice a day for two days. Can be done at room temperature or in refrigerator. On the third day, remove from water and pick through with fork to remove any bones. Put salted cod in simmering water for 5 minutes, drain. Shred cod in bowl, chopping large pieces. Saute onion and pepper for about 3 min. in olive oil until slightly soft. Add garlic and potatoes. Saute for about a minute more.

Add rest of ingredients, parsley last. Bring to a simmer. Adjust for salt and pepper and serve. You may have had black olives in there too or some other specific ingredient. This is a simple dish and probably has a lot of variations, so don't worry about it. After all, it's not rocket science.

Good luck.
