Preparation

Step 1

Wash, clean out, and chop the fish (or better yet, ask the fishmonger)

Step 2

In a pot, combine the fish, oil, vegetables, and spices. Put the pot in the fridge for one hour.

Step 3

Take it out of the refrigerator, cover it with water or fish stock and bring to a boil. Cook for 10 to 15 minute depending on the fish.

Step 4

To serve, you can either lay the fish out on a platter, and spoon the broth into a bowl - using the bread as croutons, or just spoon all the fish, bread, and broth into one bowl.

​

The freshness of the fish, and the quality of the oil and saffron will determine how good your dish is, so be picky when purchasing!
