Today I´m going to show you guys how to make a
Spanish Cod and Potato Stew
this stew uses very simple ingredients
yet somehow
it creates this amazing flavor on your palate
this is the kind of stew that while you are eating it
your tastebuds are begging for more
ok this is a very healthy recipe
and it´s easy to make
we´re going to get started
by cutting up all our vegetables
that way when we fire up the stock pot
this is going to be very simple to make
I´m going to grab 1 large leek
and cut off the fibrous leaves
cut off a little bit off the root
cut it right down the middle
remove 1 layer
and start thinly slicing it
the I´m going to grab thinly sliced leeks
and rinse them under cold water
put them on a salad spinner
and dry them
next I´m going to finely mince 2 cloves of garlic
finely dice 1/2 of a large onion
finely dice 1/2 of a red bell pepper
then grab 1 large yukon gold potato
and cut it into small pieces
ok all our veggies are cut so let´s start cooking
grab a large stock pot
heat it with a medium heat
and I´m going to add about 2 tablespoons of
extra virgin Spanish olive oil
once the oil get´s hot
we´re going to add our diced onions
and our minced garlic
and mix it in there
about 2 minutes after adding the garlic and onions
add the sliced leeks
after cooking the leeks for about 3 minutes
add the diced bell peppers
once the bell peppers have soften up
they´ve been cooking for about 3 minutes
add the potatoes
season generously with sea salt
freshly cracked black pepper
and 1/2 a teaspoon of dried thyme
and mix it all together
now we´re going to add 1/2 a cup of white wine
and hit it to a medium-high heat
once all the alcohol in the wine has evaporated
its been in here for about 2 minutes
I´m going to add 2 1/2 cups of fish broth
and a sprig of fresh rosemary
once it comes to a boil
place a lid on top and lower it to a LOW heat
ok while our stew is simmering
and seriously the aromas coming out of this
are so amazing for me
that fragrance of fresh rosemary
is just...so good!
ok let´s get to the star of the dish
fresh cod
I´ve got about a 12 ounce piece here
I´m going to season it with sea salt
freshly cracked black pepper
and then cut it into small pieces
its been 25 minutes
since I added the lid into the stock pot
now I´m going to add the pieces of cod in there
gently mix them around
place the lid back on top
and cook it for an additional 10 minutes
its been 10 minutes
since I added the cod into the stock pot
and we´ve been cooking this for about 55 minutes
so this should be perfectly cooked
I´m going to turn off the heat
plate some of it for presentation
and let you know how it turned out
ok now I´m going to give the stew a try...Salud!
so many deep flavors to this
between all the vegetables and the herbs
the potatoes are perfectly cooked
the cod...it´s just...mouthwatering
this is a fantastic stew
