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!
