Grilled cod fish with sweet potato mash

Cod is a highly nutritious fish that also tastes great no matter how it is prepared. The fish is a rich source of low-fat protein, making it an excellent choice for people who would like to reduce their fat intake and improve heart health. Codfish also contains iodine, which is an important mineral for thyroid function, besides having a significant amount of omega-3 fatty acids, vitamins, and minerals. In addition, the fish is low in calories and contains only very small amounts of fat. Codfishes are omnivorous and have a cylindrical form with a greenish to brown belly and dense, flaky flesh. Its mild flavors and sturdy, flaky texture make it a go-to choice for fish and chips, fish tacos, and fish stews, among other foods. Here we look at preparing grilled cod fish served with sweet potato mash.
