Yield serves 6

Number Of Ingredients 7

1 lb of salted cod
1 large yellow onion, sliced
1 large tomato, diced
1/2 large avocado or a whole small avocado, chopped
2 hard boiled eggs, diced
12 green olives, chopped
olive oil

Steps:

  • First rinse the salt off the cod. If you have the time you can also let it soak for about 30 minutes. I usually don't have the time so I just give it a good rinse. Bring a large pot of water to a boil, drop your cod in let it boil for about 10 mins and then change the water. Repeat this step 3 times, changing the water each time. During the last boil add your eggs. boil for about 7 minutes, transfer to a bowl with some of the hot water and let it sit about another 5 minutes or until ready to peel and dice. Sweat onions into a hot skillet with 2 Tbs of olive oil. Cook the onion until they just begin to get opaque, do not cook them through, you want to maintain a bit of a crunch. Drain cod fish. Combine, onions, cod fish, tomatoes, olives, eggs and avocado in a large bowl. Drizzle with 3 Tbs of olive oil and toss, breaking up cod fish. Served over a bed of white rice. Keep the olive oil handy in case you want an extra drizzle.
