    Simply divine! I couldn't find cod, so I replaced it with fillets of another fish that I cut into steaks. Its flesh, even when well cooked, is very tender and works well for this dish. I served my fish steaks with green pepper sauce and a potato gratin. My family and I enjoyed it!! As someone who is a fan of green pepper sauce, I found another way to prepare it. The amount of pepper indicated works well for me. However, it is true that for those who are not used to eating spicy dishes, it's better to reduce the amount. Thank you for this recipe!

    Indeed Hello Bernadette, indeed, there is a small error regarding the amount of green pepper. It is not three tablespoons but three teaspoons that I used to make the sauce. Thank you for your attention to my recipe.

    Error? Hello and thank you for this new recipe that I really enjoyed. However, I wonder if there is an error regarding the amount of dried green pepper. You mention 3 tablespoons, which I find to be too much. I didn't use a whole one and it was seasoned correctly. Otherwise, it's an original idea and I make this recipe from time to time. Thank you.
