Cod Steaks on a Bed of Creamy Leeks, Potato and Bacon image

This dish was inspired by papet vaudois, a typical dish from the French-speaking part of Switzerland, which has a big fat sausage on the top instead of cod steaks and no bacon. I haven't tried this yet but wanted to save here for safekeeping. I got this from www.jill.net

Time 49m

Yield 2 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 11

2 cod steaks, about 1 inch thick
500 g leeks, prepared weight, cut into rounds
1 onion, chopped
3 medium potatoes, peeled and sliced
5 slices bacon, chopped
100 ml stock
100 ml white wine
3 tablespoons cream
flour (for dredging)
butter, oil
2 wedges lemons

Steps:

  • Fry the bacon over a medium heat with no extra fat until it's starting to go crispy and lots of fat has run off into the pan.
  • Add the leeks and onion, stir them around and cook for about 10 minutes.
  • Throw in the potatoes, stock and wine, season lightly with salt and black pepper, and simmer for about 20 minutes.
  • In the meantime, wash and dry the cod steaks, and dredge them in flour with salt and pepper.
  • When the leeks have had their 20 minutes, melt some butter in a non-stick frying pan with a little bit of oil. When it's hot, put in the cod steaks and cook them over a medium-high heat for five minutes on each side. Keep cooking the leeks in the meantime.
  • Just before serving, stir a few tablespoons of cream into the leeks and check the seasoning.
  • Pile the creamy leeks onto the plates, and pop the cod steaks on top with a wedge of lemon.

This dish was a bit too time-consuming for my taste. I think I will try a quicker recipe next time.

I thought this dish was just okay. The cod was a bit dry and the sauce was a bit too thin. I think I will try a different recipe next time.

This dish was a bit too heavy for my taste. I think I will try a lighter version next time.

The cod was a bit overcooked, but the creamy leek sauce was delicious. I would recommend cooking the cod for a shorter amount of time next time.

This dish was a bit too salty for me. I think I will reduce the amount of salt next time I make it.

The cod and leek dish was a bit bland for my taste. I think it could have used more seasoning or herbs.

The cod was cooked to perfection, flaky and tender. The creamy leek sauce was rich and flavorful, and the bacon added a nice smoky touch. I served it over mashed potatoes and it was a hit with the whole family!
