👨🍳 Instrucciones

Preheat oven to 180°C (350°F). Boil the baby potatoes and carrots until just tender, about 15-20 minutes. Drain and set aside.

While the vegetables cook, prepare the cornbread topping. In a bowl, combine the crumbled broa, minced garlic, chopped parsley, sweet paprika, 2 tbsp of olive oil, salt, and pepper. Mix well until it forms a crumbly paste.
💡 Consejos de Profesional: Ensure the broa is well crumbled for an even topping. - 3
Pat the salt cod fillets dry with paper towels. Place them in a lightly oiled baking dish. Arrange the boiled potatoes and carrots around the cod. Add the onion wedges to the dish.
💡 Consejos de Profesional: Drying the cod helps the topping adhere better. - 4
Drizzle the vegetables and cod with the remaining 2 tbsp of olive oil and season with salt and pepper.
💡 Consejos de Profesional: Don't over-salt the cod as it is already salted. - 5
Evenly spread the broa mixture over the salt cod fillets, pressing gently to form a crust.
💡 Consejos de Profesional: Press the topping firmly but gently to ensure it sticks to the cod. - 6
Bake for 20-25 minutes, or until the cornbread crust is golden brown and crispy, and the cod is cooked through and flakes easily.
💡 Consejos de Profesional: Keep an eye on the crust to prevent it from burning. - 7
Serve hot, with the roasted vegetables on the side. This dish pairs well with a simple green salad.
💡 Consejos de Profesional: Let the dish rest for a few minutes before serving.
