Method

  1. 1

    Drain the soaked salt cod, pat dry, flake it and discard any skin and bone.

  2. 2

    Heat the olive oil in a large non-stick frying pan and cook the potato slices and onion gently for 15 minutes, turning occasionally, until tender but not browned.

  3. 3

    Stir the flaked salt cod through the potatoes for the last 2 minutes to warm through.

  4. 4

    Beat the eggs, season and pour over the potato mixture, pressing down gently so everything is covered.

  5. 5

    Cook over a low heat for 10 minutes until mostly set, then slide onto a plate, flip back into the pan and cook for a further 3-4 minutes until fully set. Serve in wedges.
