Spanish term or phrase: bacalao al pil-pil
¿Hay una manera corta de decirlo en inglés sin tener que especificar mucho? En un menu, ¿cómo se pondría?

Muchas gracias

cod "pil-pil"


Explanation:
Good luck!

Recipe details:
Cod "pil-pil" is without any doubt the most popular way to cook Cod. There are several traditional fiestas where People cook cod "pil-pil" in crowded contests. To cook cod this way for four, you will need four cod pieces, four cloves of garlic, virgin olive oil and four dried chilli peppers.

Soak the cod the previous day changing the water three times. Cook the cod in a saucepan with plenty of water until it starts boiling. Remove the saucepan from the stove and remove the cod from the saucepan with care, drain it and place on a towel.

In an earthenware pot, fry the chopped garlic and half the chilli cut in small slices in plenty of oil. When the garlic is brown, remove and put the slices of cod in the pot, separated and with skin side on top. Shake the pot constantly in circles over a medium heat adding a bit of the water used to cook the cod. As the pot is shaken, the sauce will thicken to a jelly-like texture. At this point the dish is ready to serve. Decorate the cod with the browned garlic and the unused chilli.
