INGREDIENTS
- 6-8 pieces of cod (or other fish of your choice), cleaned
- 2 kg ripe tomatoes
- 2 minced garlic cloves
- 1 cup chopped parsley
- Salt
- Pepper
- 2 tablespoons olive oil
- 1 dry onion, thinly sliced
- 1 green bell pepper, cut into strips
Colocasia Mash
- ½ kg colocasia
- 1 tablespoon olive oil
- 1 tablespoon lemon juice
- A little crushed coriander
- Salt
- Pepper
METHOD
- Wash, peel, and chop the tomatoes into a pot. Add salt, pepper, the sliced onion, green bell pepper, and garlic. Simmer until most of the liquid has evaporated.
- Just before removing the pot from the heat, add the parsley. Transfer the sauce to a baking dish and arrange the fish slices on top, lightly salted and sprinkled with black pepper.
- Spread a little of the tomato sauce on top of each fish slice, seasoned with salt and pepper.
- Drizzle with olive oil, place the baking dish in a preheated oven, and bake at 200°C for 1 hour.
- Variation: You can add chopped fresh mushrooms to the sauce for a richer flavor.
For the Colocasia Mash:
- Peel the colocasia and wipe it with a damp cloth. Cut it into cubes. Place it in a pot and add cold tap water.
- Boil until the colocasia softens, then drain it. Place it in a bowl and mash it with an immersion blender or a potato masher.
- Add all the remaining ingredients for the mash, mix, and serve with the cod plaki.
