I love fresh cod and don’t know why it is not more popular in the kosher market. It is a much more mild fish than tilapia. In my opinion, it’s the poor man’s sea bass with its plump, soft flesh that tastes like butter when perfectly cooked. The most famous of cod recipes is the traditional English style battered Fish and Chips. This is my version using fresh roasted tomatoes for an extra summer gourmet twist.

Ingredients

Roasted Tomatoes

  • 1 pint mixed yellow and red grape tomatoes

  • 2 tablespoons olive oil

  • salt, to taste

  • pepper, to taste

  • 7–8 cloves whole fresh garlic cloves

  • salt

  • pepper

  • 1/2 teaspoon parsley

Directions
