Defrost the codfish loins, dry them with paper towels, remove the skin and bones, cut them into small cubes and season them with a pinch of pepper.
Peel and wash the onions and garlic cloves, cut the onions into half-moons and chop the garlic. Heat the olive oil in a pan, add the onion, the garlic and the bay leaf and fry, stirring occasionally, until the onion is soft. Then add the chopped peeled tomatoes with the sauce and tomato pulp, season with salt, pepper and a pinch of nutmeg and fry a little longer until everything is soft. Correct the seasoning, remove from the heat, add some chopped basil and stir in.
Dip the codfish cubes in flour, shake them, fry them in oil until golden brown, remove them, drain them and pour them into a bowl. Peel and wash the potatoes, cut them into small cubes, fry them too, drain them, add them to the bowl with the codfish, add the tomato mixture and mix very well. Pour into a dish or Pyrex dish, drizzle with the cream, bake in a preheated oven at 200 ºC until golden brown, remove and serve sprinkled with more chopped basil. You can accompany the Wedding Codfish with a salad.
