About this recipe
Cod in tomato sauce is a lighter dinner made with cod fillets, tomato passata, onion, garlic, and bulgur. The delicate fish pairs well with the simple tomato sauce, while the garlic and onion give it a more home-style, pronounced flavor. Bulgur is a filling side that picks up the sauce from the plate well and makes the dish a complete meal. This is a good recipe for cod in sauce when you want to prepare fish without breading or heavy additions.
Ingredients
2 cod fillets
300 ml tomato passata
1 onion
1 garlic clove
120 g bulgur
1 tablespoon olive oil (about 12 g)
1/4 teaspoon salt
1/8 teaspoon black pepper
Steps
Cook the bulgur for 10–12 minutes so it is ready to serve with the fish and sauce.
Pat the cod dry, check for remaining bones and sprinkle with 1/4 teaspoon of salt and 1/8 teaspoon of black pepper. Heat half the olive oil in a frying pan over medium heat. Cook the fish for 2–3 minutes per side, until almost all the flesh has lost its translucency. Turn with a wide spatula so the fillet does not break apart. Transfer to a plate.
Peel and finely chop the onion and garlic. Heat the other half of the olive oil in the same pan and cook the onion over medium heat for 3–4 minutes until softened. Add the garlic for 30 seconds, then pour in the passata and cook the sauce for 5 minutes, stirring along the bottom.
Place the cod in the sauce and cook over low heat for another 2–3 minutes, until fully cooked and beginning to flake easily.
Serve immediately with the bulgur.
