  1. For the potatoes: Preheat oven to 400°F . Over low heat, melt 3 Tbsps. butter in a pan and set aside.

  4. For the ling cod: Cut the ling cod into 8 pieces of equal size, removing any bones as you go. Season the flour with salt, pepper and herbs of your choice. Dust the pieces of cod with seasoned flour and bake for 15 minutes at 400°F. Remove from oven and keep warm.

  5. To assemble the dish: Place 3 Tbsps. butter in saute pan over high heat. Add sauerkraut and saute unti partially golden brown; set aside.

  6. Divide potato slices equally among entrée plates; top with sauerkraut and then cod.

  7. Pour sauce over fish.

  8. Serving suggestion: Garnish with scallions or chives and serve with organic vegetables.
