Cod Fish in Tomato Sauce
This recipe is the result of my husbands cravings for sardines in tomato sauce he ate growing up in Ukraine. The fish is flaky and juicy and the sauce is legit. Can be served warm or cold.

In a large heavy-bottomed pan, melt 4 Tbsp butter and add finely diced onion. Cook over medium heat about ⏱️ 5 min or until onions are soft. Add 1 minced garlic clove, 6 oz tomato paste and continue cooking ⏱️ 5 min, stirring frequently, until tomato sauce starts to brown. Add 2 cups veggie stock and seasonings contained in a spice ball. Bring to a gentle boil then cover, reduce heat to low and simmer ⏱️ 20 min.

Meanwhile pat fish dry with several paper towels. In a shallow bowl, stir together 2/3 cup flour, 1 tsp salt, and 1/2 tsp pepper. Heat a large non-stick pan over medium heat and add 1/4 cup oil. Once oil is hot, quickly dredge both sides of fish in seasoned flour and place into the hot oil, working in batches if needed (don't crowd the pan). Saute ⏱️ 3 min per side or until golden, and cooked through, adding more oil as needed.
