Ingredients

Quantity Ingredient
1 pounds Salted codfish
2½ tablespoon Parsley,
1 large Onion, minced well chopped
8 tablespoons Olive oil
2 teaspoons Dry sherry
2 larges Tomatoes, peeled and chopped
4 teaspoons Green olives, chopped

Directions

This came from one of the other cookbooks I picked up last weekend.

Nice segue, eh?

Inherited from Spain, this codfish dish is a favorite of the Mexicans. Soak codfish for 8 hours in enough cold water to cover it.

Drain and shred the fish. Saute the onion in the oil until it is softened. Add codfish and saute a few more minutes. Add the remaining ingredients. Simmer slowly until codfish is tender, about ½ hour or more.

Makes 4 servings.
