Steps:
- Heat ghee in a large Dutch oven over medium. Add onions and sliced fennel and cook, stirring occasionally, until golden brown, about 15 minutes.
- Stir in tomato paste, cumin, and spice blend and cook until aromatic, 1 to 2 minutes. Add garlic and serrano and cook 5 minutes. Add tomatoes and 2 cups water and bring to a simmer. Season fish with salt and pepper and add to pot. Simmer, uncovered, until fish is cooked through, 8 to 10 minutes.
- Add lime juice and season with salt and pepper; gently stir to combine. Ladle stew into bowls; garnish with fennel fronds. Serve with lime wedges and flatbread, if desired.
