Cod with tomatoes

Cookinero 1 May 2025

Cod is a fish with lean meat. Therefore, frying is not recommended for its preparation, as the dish turns out very dry. The most suitable cooking method is baking. Cod with tomatoes in the oven is one of the simple and affordable recipes. To get juicy and tender cod, in addition to tomatoes, you will need a little mayonnaise and cheese. It is better to take hard cheese.
