Meanwhile boil the potatoes, cube and try out the salt pork, and prepare the cream sauce and the hardcooked egg. When serving pour the cream sauce over the potatoes and the fish, add the sliced egg and sprinkle with the pork scraps.

My grandmother used to mave a slightly different version of this with shallots and no egg, mashed into a potato. A very good version just the same. It takes me back a few years. – Reviewed by Jim MacKay
I grew up in the 50's eating something very similar to this recipe. I loved it!! Unfortunately the cost of the cod fish is now through the roof. – Reviewed by Dawn P. Gallo
