The recipe has been corrected. Just remember that the potatoes must be cooked before laering. I highly recommend this recipe. Many years ago I had a creamy bacalhau meal in a restaurant in the Algarve. Since then I've been looking for a similar recipe. I found it here. PS: most recipes for a creamed bacalhau is bacalhau de natas. While this a a popular Portuguese dish, it is not creamy. This recipe is definitely creamy and very enjoyable.

Very tasty. One problem: the potatoes need to be cooked before layering. If uncooked potatoes are used, they will not cook adequately in the oven.

Thank you Kenneth, I was sure the author recommended that, but they didn't so I have updated the recipe. Thank you for your feedback.
