Start by grating stale bread into crumbs, about 4 cups.

Grate a small onion into a bowl, ensuring it's finely grated to avoid chunks.

Add 1 tablespoon of summer savory to the bread crumbs.

Season the mixture with a pinch of sea salt and a pinch of black pepper.

Melt 1 tablespoon of butter and mix it into the stuffing mixture.

Pat the cod fillets dry to remove excess moisture.

Season each cod fillet with sea salt and black pepper on both sides.

Place some stuffing on each cod fillet and roll it up tightly, tucking in any stuffing that falls out.

Wrap each rolled cod fillet with a piece of bacon, securing it around the fillet.

Place the bacon-wrapped cod fillets seam-side down in a cast-iron frying pan.

Preheat the oven to 350°F (175°C) to 375°F (190°C).

Bake the cod fillets in the oven for 30 to 40 minutes until the bacon is crispy and the cod is cooked through.

While the cod is baking, prepare the drawing butter by melting 1 tablespoon of butter in a frying pan.

Add the leftover grated onion to the melted butter and sauté until tender.

Season the drawing butter with a pinch of sea salt and black pepper.
