30 minutes
Tacos with fried cod and salsa sauce are an amazing combination of tender fish and vibrant, spicy sauce. While tacos are traditionally associated with Mexican cuisine, this version with cod and fresh salsa reflects the culinary ingenuity of Irish cuisine, where seafood plays an important role. The crispy crust of the fried cod reveals its tenderness, while the salsa sauce made with tomatoes, cilantro, onions, and sour cream adds a refreshing citrus note to the dish. This dish is perfect for warm evenings or friendly gatherings, allowing you to enjoy the harmony of flavors and textures in every bite.

Cut the fish into strips 5 cm wide and dry with paper towels. Then season with salt and black pepper, then coat in flour. Pour oil into the pan, heat it up and add the cod. Fry until golden brown forms. If necessary, cook the fish in small portions so that the released juice does not interfere with frying. Pat the cooked fish with paper towels to remove excess oil.
