For a perfect pairing it's important to serve with the delicious Almeida’s Onion & Garlic Sauce.
Servings: 10 people

Ingredients

  • 1 Salted codfish - boneless skinless
  • 5 Potato - peeled, washed, and sliced in squares
  • 500 g Broccoli - florets
  • 2/3 cup Olives - (100-120g / 3.5-4 oz)

  • 2 Egg - boiled
  • 3 Onion - sliced
  • Parsley

Instacart is available in the US only at the moment.

Instructions

  • Bacalhau (Salted Codfish) needs to be soaked overnight (or for at least 10 hours) in several changes (at least once) of fresh water to get rid of some of its salt. It’s a step that can’t be skipped or the fish will be way too salty.
  • Drain the bacalhau, rinse with fresh water. Cut into small pieces.
  • Peel the potatoes, then cut them into 1 inch squares.
  • To save time boil the water using an Electric Kettle.
  • Place the potatoes and bacalhau in a large straight-sided pot with clean boiled water. Cook for about 10-15 minutes or until potatoes are almost cooked.
  • Add the broccoli florets and cook for more 4-5 minutes.
  • While bacalhau is cooking scald the sliced onion twice. Just throw boiled water on it, leave 5 minutes, drain, rinse with cold water, drain and repeat the process.
  • Slice the boiled eggs.
  • Drain the bacalhau, potatoes and broccoli florets and place them in a large bowl. Mix the scalded onion, peas, parsley and olives and cover with sliced boiled eggs.
  • Serve with the delicious Almeida’s Sauce.
  • Serve warm, room temperature or chilled.

Notes

Tip: 1 boneless skinless codfish is about 500 g -1 Kg (1-2 Lb). The thickest ones are tastier.
