Chef's Tips
The casserole with the codfish should never have the lid on because this will make the fish turn dark.
There should be abundant oil, low heat, as it should not fry but cook lightly.
Do not stir with a ladle as the fish tends to come apart, simply move the casserole in a clockwise direction.
