Ligurian Salt Cod And Potatoes

1. 1

   Peel potatoes and cut into thick slices measuring about 1/2 inch in thickness. Cut codfish into 1 inch cubes.

2. 2

   Add olive oil to a large pan containing a lid. Next add potatoes. Sprinkle on garlic and half of parsley. Place codfish on top (skin side up if it has skin - my mother in law says that way the salt from the cod can penetrate the potatoes). Top codfish with olives, pine nuts, a pinch of black pepper and remaining parsley. Pour white wine and water on top of everything.

3. 3

   Cook on medium heat with lid for approximately 30 minutes, until potatoes are cooked through. Check on pot from time to time while cooking to make sure potatoes don't stick, adding water as needed (but don't over stir). The ingredients may bubble up while cooking you can leave the lid slightly ajar to let gases escape a bit. Check for salt once done cooking, add as needed.
