Time 1h

Yield Four servings

Number Of Ingredients 14

1 whole grouper or sea bass (about 1 1/2 pounds)
2 cloves garlic, chopped
1 medium onion, quartered
1/2 teaspoon dried thyme
1 bay leaf
10 black peppercorns
2 tablespoons olive oil
1/2 green pepper, seeded and chopped
4 plum tomatoes, peeled, seeded and chopped
1/8 teaspoon turmeric
1/4 teaspoon cayenne pepper
2 medium potatoes, peeled and cut into 1/2-inch cubes
Salt to taste
2 tablespoons chopped cilantro, or to taste

Steps:

  • Have the fishmonger fillet the grouper and reserve the head and bones.
  • Place the fish head and bones in a large pot. Add 1 clove garlic, the onion, thyme, bay leaf and peppercorns. Cover with 2 quarts cold water and bring to a boil. Reduce the heat to medium and simmer for 20 minutes. Strain and set the broth aside. You should have 6 cups. Discard the solids.
  • Heat the olive oil over high heat in another pot. Saute the remaining garlic and the green pepper for 2 minutes. Stir in the tomatoes, turmeric, cayenne pepper and potatoes. Add the stock and season with salt. Bring to a boil and simmer for 15 to 20 minutes.
  • Cut the fish fillets into 1/2-inch pieces and add them to the soup. Simmer for another 10 minutes. Adjust the seasonings to taste, sprinkle with the cilantro and serve immediately.

I've made this soup several times and it's always a winner. The broth is flavorful and the fish is always cooked perfectly. I love that I can use any type of white fish, so it's a great way to use up leftovers.
