11. "BAKALIARO" FRIED.
A Favorite Grecian Dish of Dried Fish.
Ingredients:
Dried Fish ........................... 1 pound, of Smoked haddock.
Olive Oil ...................................... 3 tablespoonfuls.
Flour ........................................... 1 tablespoonful.
Eggs .......................................................... 2.
Garlic ........................................ 1 head, the juice.
Vinegar ........................................ 2 tablespoonfuls.
Method:
Cut the dried fish into pieces suitable for serving and soak in plain water over
night. When ready, boil it in fresh water for ten to fifteen minutes, and take
the skin off. Also wash the pieces clean of salt, if any remains. Then make a
thin batter of the flour and the eggs. Dip the fish into this and fry in the
olive oil until rosy in color.
This dish may be served as it is, with a vegetable salad, but the
Greeks prefer it with a sauce made of the juice of garlic mixed with vinegar, in
a desirable proportion.
