Ingredients for Bouillabaisse, Simplified

• 2 colheres de sopa de azeite de oliva

• 2 cloves garlic, peeled and smashed

• 1 large onion, peeled and sliced

• 1 small fennel bulb, thinly sliced

• 1 large pinch saffron, soaked in 2 tablespoons orange juice for 10 minutes (optional)

• 1 strip orange zest

• 1 (400g) can whole peeled tomatoes, in juice

• 1450ml seafood stock (sold at most fish markets) or clam juice

• shell-on large prawns or lump crabmeat

• clams or mussels

1. Heat the olive oil in a large, heavy pot over medium-high heat. Add the garlic, onion, and fennel and saut until just brown, 5 to 10 minutes.

2. Add the saffron (if using), orange zest, tomatoes, and stock or clam juice.

3. Bring to a boil and cook until the vegetables are tender and the liquid is reduced by half, about 20 minutes.

4. Reduce heat to medium and add the fish (but not shellfish). Cook for about 2 minutes.

5. Add any clams, mussels, and prawns. Simmer until the shells just begin to open, about 4 minutes more.

6. Add any crabmeat.

7. Cook until all shells have opened, the prawns is pink and curled, and the fish flakes easily, about 2 minutes.
