Creamy Fish Stew With Cod German Fischeintopf Recipes

CREAMY FISH STEW WITH COD (GERMAN FISCHEINTOPF)

Steps:

• Cut the cod fillet into bite-sized chunks. Place in a bowl, season generously with salt and pepper and squeeze the juice of half a lemon over the fish. Set aside.
• Dice the onion, then dice the potatoes (so they will cook faster). Chop the carrot, celery and zucchini and green beans.
• Over medium-high heat in a soup pot saute the onion in the butter and olive oil. When the onion is soft, add the rest of the veggies. Stir, cook for a couple of minutes and deglaze with the wine.
• After the wine has reduced by half, add the stock, stir, season with salt to taste, then bring to boil.
• Reduce the heat to medium, cover, allowing just a sliver of an opening for some steam to escape, and simmer for 15-20 minutes, or until the potatoes are soft.
• Stir in the heavy cream, add the cod, stir well, cover again and simmer for 8-10 minutes until the cod is cooked through and is tender and flakey. Squeeze the rest of the lemon juice over the stew, add parsley and/or dill, stir and serve.

CREAMY SEAFOOD STEW

Steps:

• Heat the oil in a large frying pan and cook the onion and celery until soft but not coloured, about 10 mins. Throw in the garlic and cook for 1 min more. Pour in the wine and simmer on a high heat until most has disappeared.
• Pour in the stock and cornflour mix and simmer for 5-10 mins, stirring often until thickened. Season, then add the seafood and most of the dill. Simmer for a few mins until piping hot, then stir in the crème fraîche.
• Meanwhile, cook the garlic bread following pack instructions. Divide the stew into warm bowls and scatter with the remaining dill. Serve with garlic bread for dipping into the stew.
