Time 20m

Yield 6 codfish steaks, 4-6 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 13

1/2 cup salt
6 fresh codfish steaks, sliced 3/4 inch thick
1/4 lb butter
1/4 cup hot fish stock (from above)
2 hard-cooked eggs, finely chopped
1 medium tomatoes, peeled, seeded and chopped
1 tablespoon parsley, finely chopped
1 tablespoon finely chopped chives
salt
fresh ground black pepper
8 tablespoons butter, melted
1 lemon, thinly sliced
parsley sprig

Steps:

  • If you don't have a long, narrow fish poacher, an enamel roasting pan 5 inches deep will do just as well.
  • Fill the pan with water to a depth of 4 inches and add 1/2 cup of salt.
  • Bring to a boil (over 2 burners, if necessary), reduce the heat slightly and gently slide the cod slices into the water with a spatula.
  • Lower the heat until the water is bubbling slightly and simmer the fish for about 5 minutes.
  • Be careful not to overcook or the fish will disintegrate. Remove the slices with a slotted spatula and drain them on a linen napkin or dish towel.
  • Arrange cod attractively on a heated platter and serve with egg sauce.
  • Egg Sauce:.
  • Melt the butter in a 1 to 11/2 quart enamel or stainless-steel saucepan.
  • Remove from the heat, beat in 1/4 cup of the stock in which you poached the fish and stir in the chopped egg, tomato, parsley and chives.
  • Add salt and pepper to taste. Heat almost to boiling point, pour into a sauceboat, and serve with the cod.
  • If you prefer, you can simply pour melted butter over the cod and garnish it with lemon slices and parsley.
  • In Norway, this dish is often accompanied by raw diced carrots, sprinkled with lemon juice, and new potatoes.

I love this recipe because it's so versatile. I've made it with cod, salmon, and halibut, and it always turns out great. The egg sauce is also a great way to use up leftover hard-boiled eggs.

This is a classic Norwegian dish that I grew up eating. My grandmother used to make it for us every Sunday, and it always brought back fond memories. The recipe is simple, yet the flavors are complex and delicious.
