Cod, Potato, and White Wine Stew
This recipe really blew me away. The combination of flavours and textures is great, and the zucchini, white wine, and lemon all keep it fresh and light. I finished mine with a hint of fresh orange zest when I served it, and wow, it added such a delicious aroma.
Ingredients
- 1 Onion Peeled and finely chopped
- 1 Leek Washed and finely sliced
- 5 tbsp Olive Oil, plus extra for garnish
- 2 Zucchini Finely cubed
- 2 lbs Potatoes Peeled and cut into large cubes
- 2 Anchovies
- 1 wineglass White Wine
- 2 c Milk
- 2 c Stock (or Water)
- 2 1/4 lbs Cod Cut into 1 1/2 inch cubes
- Salt and Pepper, to taste
- 1 handful Flat Leaf Parsley Roughly chopped
- 1/2 Lemon Juiced
Instructions
- In a medium sized pot, slowly fry the onion and leek w the olive oil for 5 minutes, until soft and tender. Add the zucchini, stir together, and cook for 1-2 minutes. Add the potatoes and anchovies and give everything a good stir.
- Turn up the heat and add the white wine. Allow to cook down by half before adding the milk and stock (or water). Bring to a boil and simmer for half an hour, until the potatoes are tender.
- At this point add your cod and simmer for a further 7 minutes, or until the fish flakes easily. Season carefully to taste with salt and pepper. Divide everything evenly amongst your bowls, and scatter some parsley, olive oil, and lemon juice over top. A bit of orange zest over top is actually kind of bomb, too.
