Method

Preparation

  1. 1

    Prepare the Vegetables

    Clean and chop the leeks into thin slices. Peel and dice the carrots into small cubes. Mince the garlic cloves. Dice the tomatoes and set aside.

  2. 2

    Sauté the Vegetables

    In a large soup pot, heat the olive oil over medium heat. Add the leeks, carrots, and minced garlic. Sauté for about 5 minutes until the vegetables are softened.

Cooking the Soup

  1. 3

    Add Tomatoes and Stock

    Add the diced tomatoes to the pot and cook for an additional 3 minutes. Then, pour in the fish stock and bring the mixture to a simmer.

  2. 4

    Season the Soup

    Stir in the saffron, salt, and black pepper. Allow the soup to simmer for about 15 minutes to enhance the flavors.

  3. 5

    Add Fish and Shellfish

    Carefully add the white fish fillets and shellfish to the soup. Cook for another 10 minutes, or until the fish is cooked through and the shellfish have opened.

Finishing Touches

  1. 6

    Garnish and Serve

    Chop the fresh parsley and squeeze the juice of the lemon into the soup. Stir well and adjust seasoning to taste. Serve hot, garnished with croutons and a dollop of rouille if desired.
