Step 1

Heat the oven to 125°C. Salt the cod and leave to brine for 10–15 minutes. Peel the potatoes and boil in salted water until tender. Drain and let the steam escape. Cut the bacon and mushrooms into small pieces. Fry in a hot pan and season with salt, pepper and balsamic vinegar. Stir in chopped parsley. Rice the potatoes. Warm the milk and whisk it into the potatoes with the butter to make a light purée. Season. Quickly brown the cod in butter over high heat. Transfer to an oven dish and cook until the centre reaches 56°C. Serve with potato purée, mushrooms, bacon and truffle aioli.
