100 g Serra da Estrela Cheese
100 g Minced onion
5 g Sliced garlic

Preparation

Prepare a stir-fry with olive oil, garlic and onion, letting it brown. Then add the cream of peppers and then the previously candied samos. Add the chopped fresh pepper and the fresh mint, then switch off. Rectify seasonings.

While making the previous preparation, place the cod fillets with olive oil on a tray and bake in the oven for 12 minutes at 150º.

When finishing the dish, emulsify the result of the cod in the oven, adding the Serra da Estrela cheese until homogenized, placing it on top of the cod that will already be on the samos stew. Finish with more mint and pickles.
