Genovese is a traditional dish of the Italian city of Genoa. The dish is based on salted codfish, which is a staple of the Mediterranean diet. The dish is simple, yet flavorful and nutritious, making it a popular choice for families and visitors to Genoa.

To prepare Genovese style codfish, you will need to start with a high-quality salted codfish. The fish should have been left to dry for several days to absorb the salt, which not only helps to preserve the fish, but also gives its unique flavor. You should also use fresh, high-quality ingredients to enhance the flavor of the dish.

Ingredients:

– 500g salted codfish
– 400g potatoes, peeled and diced
– 1 large onion, chopped
– 1 can of peeled tomatoes (or 5 fresh tomatoes, diced)
– 3 tablespoons of extra-virgin olive oil
– 2 cloves of garlic, minced
– 1 teaspoon of black pepper
– 1 tablespoon of oregano
– 1 handful of fresh parsley, chopped

Instructions:

1. Rinse the salted codfish under cool running water to remove any excess salt. Soak it in a large bowl of cold water for at least 24 hours, changing the water frequently.

2. Remove the codfish from the water, rinse it again and pat it dry with a paper towel.

3. Heat the olive oil in a large skillet over medium heat. Add the onion and garlic and sauté until soft and fragrant.

4. Add the tomatoes, potatoes, black pepper, and oregano to the skillet. Stir to combine.

5. Add the codfish to the skillet in a single layer. Cover the skillet and simmer over low heat for 20-25 minutes, until the potatoes are tender and the codfish is cooked through.

6. Before serving, sprinkle with fresh parsley.

The dish is best served hot and accompanied by a glass of white wine. This recipe serves four people.

Codfish is a rich source of protein, vitamin D and omega-3 fatty acids, which have many health benefits. The flaky white fish has a mild flavor that pairs perfectly with the tomato and onion sauce, while the potatoes add a starchy sweetness to the dish.

Overall, Genovese-style codfish is a delicious and nutritious dish that is easy to prepare and perfect for a family meal. The dish is a popular choice among visitors to Genoa, and is a great way to experience the traditional flavors of the region.
