Bread

Saffron Aioli

Method

Preparation

  1. 1

    Make the Saffron Aioli

    In a small bowl, combine mayonnaise, saffron threads (soaked in a teaspoon of warm water), minced garlic, lemon juice, and salt. Mix until smooth and set aside.

  2. 2

    Prepare the Cod

    Season the Alaskan cod fillets with salt and black pepper. Heat olive oil in a skillet over medium heat and cook the fillets for about 4-5 minutes on each side, or until the fish is cooked through and flakes easily with a fork.

Assembly

  1. 3

    Assemble the Po’ Boy

    Slice the sourdough hoagie rolls lengthwise, then spread a generous amount of saffron aioli on both sides. Place the cooked cod fillets inside, add sliced tomatoes, and top with buttercrunch lettuce. Close the sandwich and serve immediately.
