How To Cook: |
|
|
1. Clean and bone the fish, but reserve the heads, bones, and trimmings. Put them in a covered casserole with the wine, salt, pepper, lemon slices, onion, leek, carrot, bay leaves, and parsley.
|
2. Cook, covered, in the microwave oven until the vegetables are tender (about 10 minutes). Strain and reserve the broth. Discard the solids.
|
3. Put the onion slices, garlic, tomato puree, coriander seeds, potato slices, and ½ cup of the broth in the casserole. Cook, covered, in the microwave oven until the potatoes are almost tender (about 15 to 20 minutes).
|
4. Add the boned fish filets. Cook, covered, 10 minutes or until tender. Add the clams, including liquid, the shrimp and the remaining fish broth.
|
5. Add enough more water to bring the total liquid to 6 cups. Cook, covered, in the microwave oven, stirring gently once or twice, until the soup comes to a boil.
|
TIP:
|
If raw shrimp is being used, add it in a few minutes before adding in the clams, etc.
