Bacalhau com broa
Ingredients
2 large thick bacalhau fillets (600g)
Milk, to cover
½ red onion, sliced
3 dried bay leaves
2 cloves garlic
1 tsp whole black peppercorns
1kg small new potatoes
Olive oil
Salt
4 brown onions, finely sliced
Olive oil
4 thick slices corn bread (broa)
1 garlic clove, chopped
4 stalks flat leaf parsley, leaves picked and chopped
3 egg yolks
Black pepper
3/4 cup black pitted olives (Portuguese if possible)
Roasted red capsicum slices (for garnish)
Preparation
Cover fillets with water and soak for 12 hours changing the water three times.
Drain fillets then place into a saucepan and cover with milk. Add sliced onion, bay leaves, garlic and black peppercorns. Simmer gently for approximately 20 minutes.
In a hot oven roast potatoes with olive oil and salt until golden brown.
In a heavy saucepan cook the brown onions in olive oil on a high heat until browned and then simmer until nearly caramelised.
In a separate dish coarsely crumble corn bread and mix with garlic, parsley leaves and egg yolks.
Remove the fish from milk using a slotted spoon (milk can be used for a béchamel sauce). Remove skin and bones. Take the roasted potatoes and with your fist smash each one on the top to flatten. Place potatoes in a medium sized porcelain baking dish then cover with the fish chunks followed by cooked onions and corn bread mixture. Drizzle with olive oil and season with black pepper.
Garnish with olives and red capsicum and bake at 180°C for 20-30 mins. Drizzle with a little extra olive oil before serving.
