?Peixe Oporto is a traditional Portuguese recipe for baked fish with a port wine sauce. This dish is typically made with cod, but any type of white fish can be used. The sauce is made with port wine, garlic, and onion, and is thickened with bread crumbs. Peixe Oporto is usually served with boiled potatoes and a green salad.
Prepare the fish and season with salt and paprika. Bake it with the butter in a covered fireproof dish in a moderate oven (350 deg. F) for 5 minutes. Add the port wine and continue cooking until the fish is tender - 15 to 20 minutes. Strain of the liquor from the dish and cook quickly in a saucepan to reduce it a little. Cool, and beat in the egg yolks, add the cream and reheat very gently but do not bring to the simmering point. Pour the sauce over the fish and serve with Savory Rice (opt.)
