Welcome to the cooking video and introduction to the dish.

Prepare 8 g of peeled carrots and set aside.

Chop 3 medium onions and add them to a pan with a little oil over medium heat until translucent.

Shred the celery root and parsley root (250 g each) using a food processor.

Add the shredded parsley and celery root to the pan with the onions once they are translucent.

Shred the carrots and add them to the pan.

Cut the bell pepper by hand and add it to the pan.

Cover the pan and add a little water (not above 2 cm) to steam the vegetables.

Add 3 teaspoons of salt and a little white ground pepper to taste to the vegetables.

Add 5 or 6 grains of all spice and 4 bay leaves to the vegetable mixture.

Cook the vegetables over low to medium heat for no more than 15 minutes, stirring frequently to prevent burning.

Check the water level in the pan and add more if necessary; then cover again.

Once the vegetables are done, add the tomato sauce and bring to a boil before removing from heat.

Taste the vegetable mixture and adjust spices as needed.

Heat oil in a frying pan for frying the fish.

Season the cod fish fillets with salt and black pepper on both sides.

Cut the fish into small portions to prevent it from falling apart while frying.

Coat the fish pieces in 3 tablespoons of all-purpose flour and set aside.

Fry the coated fish in hot oil until it turns white inside and is browned on the outside, checking for doneness.

Layer some of the vegetable sauce on the bottom of a baking dish, followed by a layer of fish, and repeat until all ingredients are used, ensuring to remove the all spice and bay leaves.

Decorate the dish with parsley before serving.
