ZUBEREITUNG
- Heat some olive oil in a large pot and sauté the onion, leek and fennel until translucent.
- Add the garlic and sauté briefly. Then add the chopped tomatoes, saffron, bay leaf, and thyme, and let everything simmer for a few minutes.
- Pour in the fish stock OR shrimp bisque and simmer the soup for about 15 minutes over medium heat to allow the flavors to meld.
- Cut the cod into large pieces. Briefly grill the seafood until it is lightly browned, but not cooked through.
- If desired, the fish can be seared in a grill pan before being added to the broth to create a light crust.
- Add the mussels, shrimp and cod to the hot broth and simmer gently until the mussels open and the fish is cooked.
- Season with fresh parsley and lemon or orange zest.
- To prepare the rouille: Combine all ingredients and mix well. This flavorful sauce is perfect with toasted baguette, which is served as a side dish with bouillabaisse.
