After removing the fish from the water, preserve the water for later. Lay the cod on a cutting board and remove the bones, but make sure to keep the meat in larger pieces. Saute garlic, onion and parsley in olive oil in the cooking pot quickly. Potatoes should be added and stirred until coated with spicy oil. Pour potatoes with the preserved cooking water and simmer them until tender. Put the cod meat back to the pot and simmer slowly without stirring for about 20-30 minutes. Season the stew with salt and pepper.
