Shredded cured cod with fried potato sticks, eggs, onion and black olives.

About Bacalhau à Brás
Bacalhau à Brás combines shredded cured cod with potato sticks and eggs. Riberalves presents this as a Portuguese culinary classic, using its ready-to-cook shredded cod in the selected recipe.
Cod supplies a savoury fish flavour, with onion and garlic softened in olive oil. Black pepper and parsley season the mixture, while black olives add a briny finish.
Fine potato sticks mingle with flakes of cod, bound together by the eggs. Parsley and olives finish the dish; the publisher also suggests a lettuce salad alongside, without specifying its dressing.
