Method
- Use desalted cod loin, thawed if frozen. Cook in 1.5 litres of gently simmering water for 8 to 10 minutes. Drain, remove skin and bones, and shred.
- Thinly slice the onions. Heat the 40 ml of olive oil in a wide frying pan and soften the onions over medium heat for 10 to 12 minutes.
- Add the cod and stir for 3 minutes. Add the 200 g of potato sticks and stir for 2 minutes.
- Beat the eggs with the pepper. Taste the cod before adding the salt because the potato sticks are also salted. Pour the eggs into the pan and stir over low heat for 3 to 5 minutes until they set around the cod but remain moist.
- Remove from the heat, sprinkle with chopped coriander, and serve immediately.
