Baked salt cod and sliced potatoes with onion, milk and an egg-and-olive garnish.

About Bacalhau à Gomes de Sá
Chef Manuel Almeida’s bacalhau à Gomes de Sá combines flakes of salt cod with potatoes and a sauté of finely sliced onion and garlic. Continente published his preparation after its food festival presentation.
The cod is scalded and then softened in hot milk. Potatoes are boiled in their skins, peeled and sliced before joining the fish and olive-oil onion mixture in the baking dish.
A brief bake brings the ingredients together. Sliced boiled eggs, black olives and chopped parsley decorate the finished dish, giving the pale fish and potatoes a colourful final covering.
