Recipe of Cod tortilla

Vida Recetas Editorial

The cod tortilla is a classic variation of the Spanish tortilla that combines the softness of eggs with the intense, salty flavor of desalted cod. Originating from traditional Spanish cuisine, this recipe is perfect for those seeking a complete, nutritious, and flavorful dish with marine notes. Cod, rich in protein and omega-3 fatty acids, adds a gourmet touch to the tortilla, making it an ideal choice for a light dinner or an elegant appetizer.

The preparation is simple: gently poach the spring onions in extra virgin olive oil, add the desalted cod flakes, and mix with beaten eggs. The result is a juicy tortilla with a golden exterior, achieving a perfect balance between the sweetness of the onion and the saltiness of the cod. This recipe is suitable for both beginners and experts, and it admits variations such as adding peppers or potatoes. If you love the taste of the sea, this tortilla will become a staple in your kitchen.

Ingredients

Directions

  1. 1

    Peel the scallions and cut them into fine julienne strips.

  2. 2

    In a frying pan with extra virgin olive oil, fry it over a very low heat, which is very soft, until it starts to brown.

  3. 3

    We incorporate cod crumbs, although they are crumbs, sometimes you find larger pieces than others, so I like to cut them all with scissors a little more.

  4. 4

    Mix for about five minutes.

  5. 5

    Beat the eggs and add to the pan, stir everything a little.

  6. 6

    Lower the heat and let it set, put a plate on the pan.

  7. 7

    We turn it over and put it back in the pan so that it finishes curdling on the other side.

  8. 8

    And now all we have to do is serve and eat our cod tortilla.
