RecipesMealsCod with creamy dijon sauce and crispy bacon
Instructions
Fry the bacon in a pan on medium-high heat until crispy. Put aside on a plate. Leave the rendered fat in the pan.
Fry onion and garlic in butter in the same pan, until soft.
Add heavy cream and mustard. Mix and let it simmer for about 10 minutes until creamy. Season with salt and pepper to taste.
Season the fish with salt and pepper.
Place the fish in the frying pan and let simmer in the sauce on medium heat for 7-10 minutes, turning halfway through. Taste the sauce and add more seasoning if needed.
While the fish is simmering, in another large frying pan, melt the butter. Add the cabbage and carrot strips and sauté until tender.
To plate, place the fish on top of the cabbage and carrots, and cover with a generous serving of cream sauce. Garnish with bacon pieces and chopped parsley.
