Authentic Bouillabaisse French Fish Soup Simple & Quick
A bouillabaisse is the queen of fish soups, bringing the Mediterranean lifestyle directly into your kitchen. Originally known as a simple fisherman's dish from Marseille, this aromatic specialty is now a true highlight for gourmets who value fresh ingredients and real quality. In my little cat kitchen, I prefer to prepare this bouillabaisse with a selection of fresh fish and crisp vegetables, without any convenience products. It is incredibly healthy, warming, and surprisingly easy to prepare. The scent of fresh fennel, garlic, and a pinch of saffron enchants everyone. Whether you are looking for a quick lunch or want to treat yourself to something special in the evening – this recipe works for everyone and tastes like it came straight from a holiday on the Côte d'Azur. Follow my simple steps and enjoy the pure taste of the sea, perfectly portioned for one person.
Ingredients
Preparation
First, we prepare the vegetables: Cut the fennel into fine strips, dice the onion, and finely chop the garlic.
Heat the olive oil in a pot and sauté the vegetables until translucent – it almost smells like the harbor of Marseille already!
Now briefly toast the tomato paste and add the diced tomatoes.
Pour in the fish stock and add the delicate saffron threads. Let everything simmer for about 10 minutes over medium heat.
In the meantime, cut the fish into bite-sized pieces and add them to the broth together with the shrimp.
Let the fish cook gently for about 5 to 7 minutes. Meow, don't stir too much so the fish stays chunky!
Finally, season with salt and pepper and serve hot.
