ROUPA VELHA / LEFTOVER FISH AND VEGETABLES W/ EGG




This dish is typically made with leftovers from a boiled fish dinner. I always make it with leftover Whiting, but many use cod. Leftover veggies are also used - normally potatoes and greens. However, I often make it with chick peas instead of potatoes. Note: if there are not enough leftover vegetables or fish, you can always boil more in order to prepare this dish.

Ingredients

3 leftover portions of boiled Whiting, flaked and skin removed 
Leftover boiled vegetables such as green beans or other greens
Leftover boiled potatoes or chick peas
1 medium onion sliced crosswise
1/2 cup olive oil
3 parsley sprigs
Salt and Pepper to taste
4 / 5 eggs

Instructions

In a frying pan, heat the olive oil and then add the sliced onions. Once the onions start to become translucent and start to brown, add the fish and vegetables and let they fry in the olive oil a bit. 

In the meantime, crack the eggs in a bowl and mix well as you would if making scrambled eggs. To the eggs, add salt and pepper to taste and also some chopped fresh parsley. 

Pour the eggs into the frying pan, over all of the other ingredients and fry until egg is cooked. Flip over as you would an omelette to fry the egg mixture thoroughly.
