For the garlic Sauce 

Skordalia

What we need:
4 -5 large potatoes
3-6 cloves garlic (depending on preference)
1 lemon juice
1/4 teaspoon salt
Olive oil (about one wine glass full )

Method 
Peel the potatoes and boil in a little water.
Peel the cloves of garlic and put them together in multi with salt and half the lemon juice.
Then mush, if garlic has not completely melted do not worry.
Continue pouring in multi by adding 1 potato and 3 tablespoons water than boiled potatoes and a oil triturated empty bowl and mix in the remaining drop, potatoes one by one in the same manner.
Taste and add lemon or more olive oil.
If your mixture is more liquid than you need to wait a little let  the garlic dip cool and see if it has tightened. If not then add more potato 
If you serve it with fried cod:
Boil a piece of cod with potatoes and broth using it to melt potatoes. Is Cephalonian ekdochi.Tairiazei perfect with steamed greens.
Few secrets yet
I suggest that you cook an extra boiled potato or so in case the garlic dip is  too hot or you become very fluid.
