A very tasty dish from our Tuscan tradition. Once a cheap fish today salted codfish became a star of the Tuscan and Italian cuisine.
This dish is without tomatoes and enhances the taste of the fish.

Ingredients

  • 800 g of salted codfish already soaked
  • 4 leeks
  • 3-400g of potatoes (optional)
  • 3 tablespoons extra virgin olive oil

Directions

  1. Peel and dice the potatoes as if you’re roasting them, then boil them until very soft. Once done, set them aside to cool.
  2. Slice the leeks into rounds and sauté them in olive oil in a large pan. After 5 minutes, add the boiled potatoes and toss for 2-3 minutes.
  3. Coat the baccalà in flour and fry it in extra virgin olive oil for about 5 minutes until golden.
  4. Break the fried baccalà into pieces and add it to the leeks and potatoes. Let everything cook together for 5-6 minutes, and your dish is ready!

Tip: Without potatoes it’s lighter and delicious anyway! 😋
