Bacalhau a Brás

Step 1

Soak the codfish in cold water for at least 24 hours to remove the salt. Change the water at least 3 times.

Step 2

Peel and cut the potatoes into thin matchsticks. Rinse and pat dry with paper towels.

Step 3

Finely chop the onion. Heat 4 tablespoons of olive oil in a large frying pan over medium heat and cook the onion until soft.

Step 4

Add the potatoes and cook until they are golden brown and crispy. Remove them from the pan and set aside.

Step 5

Using the same frying pan, add 2 tablespoons of olive oil and the shredded codfish. Stir and cook for 5 minutes or until the fish is slightly golden. Remove it from the pan and set aside with potatoes.

Step 6

Crack the eggs in a bowl, beat, season with salt and black pepper and pour into the frying pan. Scramble it until fluffy and just set.

Step 7

Return the potatoes and fish to the frying pan, add parsley and stir gently to combine.

Step 8

Serve hot.
