Fish soup with lots of vegetables and aioli

Today fish soup was on the menu. 

Unfortunately we did not have time enough to visit the fish car in the town's market square. Therefore we had to use frozen fish fillets of salmon and cod. These we first thawed in the microwave oven.











Then we cut them into small cubes.

Fish soup consists of much more than fish. In our soup we have carrots, potatoes, fennel, Jerusalem artichokes, leeks, onions and parsnips.

Everything is cut into small pieces and then put into a sauce pan. The vegetables (except the leek), shall first fry for a while in the pan in some oil.


Then we add about 1 litre of water and two dices of fish broth and half dice of chicken broth (which provides a smooth flavour to the soup).


 When the vegetables have cooked about 15 minutes, we add the leeks.

At the same time 1 decilitre of cream is also added. When everything has boiled up again, it is time to add the fish into the pan. The soup will now cook for about 10 minutes.

Meanwhile, we make an aioli made ​​up of garlic, mayonnaise, Turkish yogurt, salt and pepper.

The soup is served in deep round bowls. 

The rest is pure enjoyment!
