Ingredients
- 1 onion
- 2 cloves garlic, crushed
- 2 tbsp extra virgin olive oil
- 3 cups tomato puree
- 1 tsp sugar
- 1/2 tsp salt
- 8 medium loins of desalted cod or fresh cod (24 oz)
- 2 big roasted red peppers, jarred or made at home
Method
- Peel garlic and onion and chop them small.
- Grease a large frying pan (large enough to hold all the cod in a single layer) with 2 Tablespoons olive oil and fry the garlic and onion over medium heat until golden. Add tomato sauce and mix well. Add 1 teaspoon sugar and 1/2 teaspoon salt. Thicken sauce by cooking for 30 minutes on a low simmer, stirring occasionally.
- Place the cod loins in a single layer on the tomato sauce in the pan. Cook on a low simmer for 6-8 minutes on each side. Chop red peppers and add to the sauce. Cook for a few more minutes. If sauce is too thick add in a little bit of vegetable broth or water.
