Cod with Tomato!! 🐟🍅
Chus Molinero @cook_112376513
This recipe is very well-known in Spain during Easter since on Good Friday you cannot eat meat (for those who are Christians, and in Spain I’d say that almost 80% of Spaniards are) so fish is a great alternative for that day!!!
This recipe is very easy to make and it turns out delicious! And if you like bread, dipping it in its tomato sauce… Mmmmmm!! Delicious, delicious!
Are you up for trying it?? I look forward to your photos!!

- 1
Cut the cod loins into small pieces to fry them.
- 2
Put flour on a plate to coat the cod pieces. Add salt and coat the pieces with flour.
- 3
Heat enough oil in a pan to almost cover the cod. Once hot, fry the cod. When golden on both sides, remove and place on a paper towel-lined plate to absorb the excess oil.
- 4
Prepare the sofrito (sautéed base). You can use the same pan if everything fits. Remove most of the oil, leaving a bit for sautéing.
- 5
Peel and chop the onion, then add it to the pan. (If you’re using fresh piquillo or red peppers, cook them first, as they take longer to soften.)
- 6
Add the garlic, chopped into small pieces or slices. Let it cook along with the onion.
- 7
Chop the roasted piquillo peppers into small pieces and add them to the onion and garlic. (I use jarred roasted piquillo peppers, since fresh ones are hard to find here in the US. Piquillo peppers are originally from Spain, and the only ones I’ve been able to find are ‘DELALLO Roasted Piquillo Peppers in Water.’)
- 8
Add the strained tomatoes and let everything simmer together to blend the flavors.
- 9
Add parsley and taste for salt!
- 10
Add the fried cod pieces to the sauce. Let it simmer a bit more so everything melds together—make sure it doesn’t stick!
- 11
Enjoy! (And don’t forget to serve it with good bread to soak up the sauce!! 😉).

Cod with Vegetable Ankake Sauce
I combined in-season cod with some vegetables I had in the refrigerator, to make a Japanese-style dish.If you prefer to have lots of sauce, double the sauce ingredients.The key is to not flip the cod over too often when it's cooking. Leave it alone so that it can brown on one side, then turn over and brown the other side. This way they won't fall apart, and will have a crispy finish.If you want the vegetables to be crispy, don't stir fry them or simmer them in the sauce for too long. Recipe by oldice
Cod with Mushroom Cream Sauce
I bought some good looking cod...but I don't have a big fish recipe repertoire. So I just tried making something that I thought would be delicious. I rarely go to a fancy restaurant since I have to take care of my children...so I just wanted to enjoy the atmosphere at least at home.This is so easy! Please use white wine rather than sake if possible. Cooked cod falls apart easily, so brush some oil on your fish grill beforehand to prevent the cod from sticking to it, and it will be easier to remove intact. I do this very carefully with a spatula. For 4 fillets of cod. Recipe by Lesser Panda

Cod, Potato and Tomato Soup
I made this soup with leftover cod and vegetables. Even though I didn't use any bouillon cubes, the soup was still very flavourful. My daughter loved it and finished it all. I wanted to save this dish as a part of my family's repertoire.This is a simply flavoured soup. Skim off the scum carefully.The black peppercorns enhance the flavour of the soup, so they are essential. (But you can leave them out when you serve this soup to your children.)The saltiness of the cod affects the taste of the soup. Check the seasoning and adjust the salt to your taste.

Cod and Potatoes Simmered with Tomatoes
I wanted to eat cod in a western style dish and came up with this recipe. My aim was to create a main dish that could be made with ingredients I usually have on hand, so I simmered the cod with canned tomatoes. It matches perfectly with the potatoes too.Use raw unsalted cod.I didn't add any herbs and so on this time and kept it simple, but if you add herbs when simmering it will become even more delicious. For 2 servings. Recipe by yaburie
Tomato Fish
Traditional spicy fish curry with red colour is sometimes disliked by children and they look forward for less spicy but attractive dishes.So I used tomato and coconut to prepare a special dish very delicious and which can really be enjoyed by young and aged alike with chappathi,poori,battura or even white rice .Any type of fish can be used.King fish ,pomphret or even sardines can be used....

Cod with Grated Daikon Radish Agedashi (Deep Fried with Savory Sauce)
I bought cod on sale, and made it into my favorite agedashi style dish!- Coat the cod with batter twice so it will have a soft texture when you eat it and to keep the oil from splattering while you deep fry it.- Wash the daikon radish once it is grated, otherwise it may become a bit smelly when it's heated. For 3 servings. Recipe by abichi

Easy Superb Tomato Curry
We often receive a large amount of cherry tomatoes as a gift, and I've always made them into tomato sauce. I tried them once in a curry, and it was so delicious! So since then I've been making curry whenever I've had a lot of tomatoes on hand.You can use any meat you like! If you make this in a pressure cooker, enough water will come out from the tomatoes and other vegetables, so you don't need any added water! The sweetness of the tomato is delicious, and this curry is good for you too. You can add eggplant and use this as a meat sauce too! If you are making this in a regular pot, please add a little water. Recipe by Nyororon
