Garlicky Fish Stew From Corfu Recipes

Steps:

• Heat the butter and one tablespoon of oil in a large stew pot or Dutch oven (large enough for you to spread fish out in a single layer--it's okay if they are crowded a bit).
• Add onions and garlic and cook over medium-low heat, stirring, until softened (about 5 minutes).
• Turn heat to medium high, add wine and bring to a boil, scraping up any bits from the bottom of the pan.
• Reduce heat to medium low and add potatoes, salt and pepper and cook for about 8 to ten minutes.
• Lay the fish fillets over the potatoes, drizzle with the remaining oil, and add just enough water to cover the fish.
• Season with salt and pepper, partially cover, and simmer until fish is flaky, potatoes are soft and the liquid largely reduced (depending upon thickness of fish, anywhere from ten to twenty minutes.
• Adjust seasoning, squeeze lemon over the fish and garnish with chopped parsley and lemon wedges.

Steps:

• In a large pot, heat oil over medium. Add onions, stirring occasionally, and cook until they begin to soften, about 8 to 10 minutes. Stir in the minced garlic and cook until fragrant and lightly golden, 1 minute.
• Stir in saffron, and pour in fish stock and wine. Add potatoes, fennel seeds, orange peel, a large pinch of salt and a few grinds of black pepper. Bring to a simmer, cover, and cook for about 25 minutes, until potatoes are tender.
• Season fish with salt and pepper. Remove orange peels from soup and add fish. Cook, covered, over medium-low heat until fish is opaque and flaky, 4 to 14 minutes, depending on the thickness of the fillets. Using a metal spatula or knife, break the fish into chunks.
• In a small bowl, whisk together the mayonnaise, lemon juice, remaining garlic and Aleppo pepper. Slowly stir in a ladle of hot stock into mayonnaise mixture. Gently stir mayonnaise mixture into simmering soup. Heat through, without reaching a boil (the mayonnaise will curdle). Stir in parsley and taste, adding more salt if you'd like. When serving, garnish with more parsley and Aleppo.

Steps:

• Place the garlic cloves and 1/4 teaspoon salt in a mortar and pestle, and mash to a paste. Add the anchovy fillets and mash with the garlic. Set aside.
• Heat the olive oil over medium heat in a large, heavy soup pot or Dutch oven, and add the onion, celery and carrot with 1/2 teaspoon salt. Cook, stirring, until the onion is tender, about five minutes. Add the pureed garlic and anchovy. Cook, stirring, until the mixture is very fragrant, about one minute, and then add the tomatoes. Cook, stirring often, until the tomatoes have cooked down a bit and the mixture smells aromatic, about 10 to 15 minutes. Add the water, potatoes, salt (to taste) and the bouquet garni. Bring to a simmer. Turn the heat to low, cover partially and simmer 30 minutes. Taste, adjust salt and add pepper to taste. Remove the bouquet garni.
• Season the fish with salt and pepper, and stir into the soup. The soup should not be boiling. Simmer five to 10 minutes (depending on the thickness of the fillets) or just until it flakes easily when poked. Remove from the heat, stir in the parsley, taste once more, adjust seasonings and serve.

Steps:

• Heat the butter and 1 tablespoon of the olive oil together in a large stewing pot or Dutch oven. Add the onions and garlic and cook over medium low heat, stirring, until softened, about 5 minutes.
• Add the potatoes, season with salt and pepper and cook, stirring gently, until the potatoes are about half cooked, 10 to 12 minutes.
• Place the fish in the pot over the potatoes, drizzle with the remaining 2 tablespoons olive oil and add enough water just to cover the fish. Season with salt and pepper. Place the lid partially over the pot and simmer over medium low heat until the fish is flaky and the liquid almost gone, about 20 minutes.
• Adjust the seasoning, pour in the lemon juice and garnish with chopped parsley. Serve hot.

Steps:

• To make the garlic toasts, drizzle the bread with oil, then griddle or grill until golden all over. While the toasts are still hot, rub them with garlic and set aside.
• Heat the oil in a wide, deep frying pan. Add the onion and cook over a gentle heat for 5 mins until softened. Stir through the garlic and chilli and cook a couple of mins more. Add the tomato purée and tomatoes. Turn up the heat and cook for 10-15 mins, stirring until the tomatoes are pulpy. Pour over the wine and cook for 10 mins more until most of it has boiled away.
• Add the fish stock and orange zest and heat until gently simmering. Nestle the halibut chunks into the liquid and cook for 5 mins. Add the clams and prawns and cook for 5 mins more until the fish is cooked through and the clams have opened (discard any that haven't). Sprinkle the parsley over the stew and serve with the garlic toasts.

Steps:

• 1. Heat the butter and 1 tablespoon of the olive oil together in a large stewing pot or Dutch oven. Add the onions and garlic and cook over medium-low heat, stirring, until softened, about 5 minutes. Add the potatoes, season with salt and pepper, and cook, stirring gently, until the potatoes are about half cooked, 10 to 12 minutes.
• 2. Place the fish in the pot over the potatoes, drizzle with the remaining 2 tablespoons olive oil, and add enough water just to cover the fish. Season with salt and pepper. Place the lid partially over the pot and simmer over medium-low heat until the fish is flaky and the liquid almost gone, about 20 minutes. Adjust the seasoning, pour in the lemon juice, and garnish with chopped parsley. Serve hot.
