  1. Wash the potatoes and cook in a pan with water and the broth until tender, drain and set aside the cooking water.
  2. Pass the potatoes through cold water, drain again and put aside.
  3. Put the capers, parsley, mustard, sugar, vinegar and oil in a pot and stir for 1 minute, check for salt, capers already have salt.

  5. In a skillet with a little olive oil, saute the onions and set aside.
  6. Dry the cod with a paper towel.
