Jarlsberg torsk is a traditional fish dish originating from Norway. The dish is usually made with a combination of cod fillets, leeks, butter, tomatoes, Jarlsberg cheese, salt, garlic, milk, cream, and white pepper. The fish is cleaned, dried, and cut into pieces that are arranged in a greased baking dish.


It is seasoned with salt, pepper, and garlic. The leeks and tomatoes are sliced and arranged over the fish. The dish is topped with grated Jarlsberg, milk, and cream before it's baked in an oven until done. It's recommended to garnish the dish with chopped parsley or chives before serving and accompany it with potatoes or heavy bread for mopping up the sauce.
