Peel the potatoes and boil in salted water.
Cut the cauliflower into thin slices. Melt 2 tablespoons butter in a pan and fry the cauliflower on both sides until golden brown. Sprinkle with salt and pepper.
Heat the olive oil with a tablespoon of butter in a frying pan. Season the fish fillets with a pinch of salt and pepper. Fry them on medium heat for 3-4 minutes on both sides.
Place the potatoes and the cauliflower on the plates, add the cod fillets and mussels. Serve with the onion mussel sauce. Enjoy!
