Cod Taco with Wheat Tortilla, Kale, and Chili Mayonnaise

This taco is easy to make if you use store-bought taco shells (14 cm in diameter), or you can make the shells yourself. If using ready-made shells – warm them as described on the package. The recipe is for about four shells. All our recipes are sourced from godfisk.no

Ingredients

Chili mayonnaise

kale

Tortilla Shells

Method

The fish can be prepared in two ways.

Pan-fried

  • Cut the fish into finger-sized pieces
  • Sprinkle with taco seasoning and salt
  • Use a good oil, such as sunflower or rapeseed oil, in the pan
  • Add butter for better flavor
  • Cook the fish in 2 minutes in a hot pan
  • Turn the fish pieces, remove the pan from the heat, and let rest for 2 minutes
  • Serve

Baked in the oven

  • Preheat the oven to 180°C (conventional setting)
  • Add a little oil to the bottom of an ovenproof dish
  • Place the entire fillet in the dish
  • Sprinkle with salt and taco seasoning
  • Bake for 15 minutes in the center of the oven
  • Remove the fish, use a fork to break it apart slightly
  • Serve

Chili Mayonnaise

  • You can make mayonnaise yourself or use ready-made
  • Blend mayonnaise and chili sauce in a blender
  • Season with salt to taste

Finely chopped kale

  • Pre-cut kale (available commercially) and finely sliced spring onion tossed with lime and olive oil just before serving

Tortilla Shells

  • Remove the butter from the refrigerator so it reaches room temperature before making the shells
  • Mix all ingredients to form a smooth dough
  • Divide the dough into 12 equal parts
  • Cover and let rest for about 15 minutes
  • Roll the balls into approximately 12 cm diameter circles — the thinner, the better. When you can see your hand through the tortilla, they are perfect.
  • Cook the tortilla shells in a dry non-stick pan over medium heat. Press down the shells during cooking to prevent bubbles (not with your fingers). The tortillas should turn golden.
  • They are a bit stiff when freshly made, but will become softer over time.

Plating

  • Use brown paper/baking paper under the shell
  • Spread a layer of mayonnaise on the shell
  • Lightly arrange fresh green salad on the shell
  • Place the cod on top
  • Let the eaters close their shells, as they look better when opened
