Cod Potato Spring Onion Stew Food

CREAMY COD CHOWDER STEW

Steps:

• Bring a saucepan of salted water to the boil, add the potato and parsnips, and boil until almost tender - about 4 mins. Drain well.
• Meanwhile, put the fish in a pan where they will fit snugly but not on top of each other. Cover with the milk, poke in the parsley stalks and bring the milk to a gentle simmer. Cover the pan, turn off the heat and leave to sit in the milk for 5 mins. Lift the fish out and break into large chunks. Discard the parsley stalks but keep the milk.
• Put the spring onion whites, milk and flour in a saucepan together. Bring to a simmer, whisking continuously, until the sauce has thickened and become smooth. Turn the heat down, add the drained potatoes and parsnips, the lemon zest and half the juice, and cook gently for 5 mins, stirring occasionally. Stir in the spring onion greens, fish and parsley, and taste for seasoning - it will need plenty of pepper, some salt and maybe more lemon juice from the leftover half. Divide between two shallow bowls, serve with chunks of crusty bread and enjoy.

COUNTRY-STYLE POTATO AND TOMATO STEW WITH POACHED COD

Steps:

• Heat oil in a 3-quart non-reactive saucepan over medium high heat, add the onions and cook until browned and softened, about 8 to 10 minutes. Add the garlic, tomatoes, chicken broth, potatoes, pepper flakes, and salt, stir until combined. Cover and reduce heat to medium and cook 45 minutes or until potatoes are almost mushy but have not lost their shape.
• Pour half the potatoes and tomatoes in a refrigerator dish for tomorrow night's quick vegetable beef stew. Lay cod over stew, cover and steam until tender and fish begins to flake, 5 to 7 minutes. Serve immediately.
• In a large soup pot, heat olive oil over medium high heat, add stew meat, and cook until browned on all sides, about 3 to 5 minutes. Add leftover potatoes and tomatoes, chicken stock, green beans and corn. Cook until vegetables are done, about 6 to 8 minutes. Taste and adjust seasonings. Serve immediately.

COD, POTATO, SPRING ONION STEW

Steps:

• 1. In an appropriately sized large pan, slowly fry your onion and leek with around 5 tablespoons of olive oil for 5 minutes until soft and tender. With a teaspoon, remove and discard the fluffy tasteless core from the courgettes and grate the rest into the pan.
• 2. Chop the potatoes into rough 2cm/1 inch dice and add to the pan. Give everything a good stir and then add the anchovies. Turn the heat up and add the white wine. Allow to cook down by half before adding your milk and stock. Bring to the boil and simmer for half an hour until the potatoes are tender.
• 3. At this point add your cod and simmer for a further 15 minutes until the flesh flakes away − feel free to stir and break up the fish, but it's quite nice to leave some big chunks as well. Season carefully to taste. Divide between your bowls, and serve with a small handful of parsley and spring onion dressed with a little olive oil and lemon juice.

COD WITH POTATOES, PEPPERS AND SAFFRON

Steps:

• Heat the olive oil in a large wide pot over medium-high heat. Add the onion and bell pepper and cook, stirring occasionally, until tender, about 5 minutes. Add the garlic and cook, stirring, until softened, about 30 seconds. Add the potatoes and stir to coat. Add the chicken broth, bay leaves, 3/4 teaspoon salt, the saffron and red pepper flakes. Bring to a boil, then reduce the heat to maintain a steady simmer. Cover the pot and cook until the potatoes are mostly tender, 8 to 10 minutes.
• Season the cod with salt, then add to the pot; submerge about halfway in the broth, with the top of the fish exposed. Cover and simmer until the fish is cooked through, 8 to 10 minutes. Carefully remove with a spatula and transfer to shallow bowls.
• Gently stir the lemon juice into the pot; season with salt and more red pepper flakes. Spoon the vegetables and broth over the fish, sprinkle with the parsley and serve with the lemon wedges.

COD & CHORIZO STEW

Steps:

• Heat the oil in a deep frying pan and add the onion. Cook over a medium heat for 5 mins until starting to soften. Add the chorizo and cook for another few mins to release the oil. Coat the onion in the chorizo oil, then tip in the tomatoes. Fill the can with water and tip that in too. Season and bring to the boil.
• Once boiling, season the cod fillets and nestle into the pan. Reduce the heat and gently simmer for about 7 mins. Gently mix in the butter beans and cook for 1-2 mins more until hot. Scatter with parsley and serve in bowls.

COD AND POTATO STEW WITH OVEN-DRIED TOMATOES

Steps:

• To make the tomatoes, preheat oven to 200 degrees. Combine rosemary and orange oils in a small bowl. Using a pastry brush, coat both sides of the tomato halves lightly with oil mixture. Place skin-side down on a large baking sheet. Sprinkle with salt and pepper to taste.
• Bake the tomatoes until they shrink to about 1/4 of their original size, about 4 to 6 hours; they should remain soft and juicy. Let tomatoes cool on the baking sheet. Cut them in half crosswise and set aside.
• To make the stew, heat the oil in a large pot over medium heat. Add the onion, garlic, carrots and celery. Reduce the heat to medium-low and cook, stirring often, for 10 minutes. Stir in the wine, water, bay leaf and rosemary. Add the potato slices. Bring to a boil, reduce heat, cover and simmer for 25 minutes. Stir in the tomatoes and jalapeno and simmer, uncovered, for 5 minutes. Add the cod and simmer just until cooked through, about 3 minutes. Divide among 4 bowls and serve.
