Bacalhau A Gomes De Sa Recipe

Cooking Instructions

1. 1

   Prepare the Codfish

   Soak the salted codfish in water for at least 24 hours, changing the water several times. Once desalinated, drain and flake the fish into large pieces.

2. 2

   Cook the Potatoes

   Peel the potatoes and cut them into thin slices. Boil the sliced potatoes in salted water until tender, about 15 minutes. Drain and set aside.

3. 3

   Sauté the Aromatics

   In a large skillet, heat the olive oil over medium heat. Add sliced onions and minced garlic, and sauté until the onions are translucent.

4. 4

   Combine Ingredients

   In a large baking dish, layer half of the cooked potatoes, then add the flaked codfish, sautéed onions and garlic, bay leaves, and black olives. Top with the remaining potatoes.

5. 5

   Add Milk and Season

   Pour the milk over the layered mixture, drizzle with more olive oil, and season with salt and black pepper. Sprinkle chopped parsley on top.

6. 6

   Bake

   Preheat the oven to 180°C (350°F). Bake the dish for about 30-35 minutes, or until the top is golden and crispy.

7. 7

   Serve

   Remove from the oven and let it sit for a few minutes before serving. Garnish with additional parsley if desired.
