Come preparare

1
Place the soaked, rinsed salt cod in a saucepan, cover with fresh water, and bring it just to a simmer. Simmer gently for 8 minutes, then drain, cool briefly, remove any skin and bones, and flake the fish into bite-size pieces.
2
Heat 30 ml of the olive oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Fry the potato matchsticks in batches for 4 to 5 minutes per batch, turning occasionally, until pale golden and crisp at the edges. Drain on paper towels and season lightly with pepper.

3
Pour off excess oil, leaving about 1 tablespoon in the skillet. Add the remaining olive oil, onion, and garlic. Sauté over medium-low heat for 8 to 10 minutes, stirring often, until the onion is soft, translucent, and lightly golden.
4
Add the flaked cod to the onion mixture and sauté for 2 minutes, folding gently so the fish stays in distinct flakes. Stir in the fried potatoes and half of the parsley, then cook for 1 minute to combine.
5
Reduce the heat to low and pour in the beaten eggs. Stir continuously and slowly with a spatula for 2 to 3 minutes, until the eggs form soft, glossy curds and are no longer liquid; remove the skillet from the heat immediately.

Fold in the black olives and remaining parsley. Taste and add pepper or salt only if needed, then serve at once with lemon wedges.
