👨‍🍳 조리법

1
Heat olive oil in a large, heavy-bottomed pot or Dutch oven over medium heat. Add the sliced onions and sauté until softened.
2
Add the minced garlic, cumin, coriander, turmeric, paprika, cayenne pepper, salt, and black pepper. Cook for 1-2 minutes until fragrant, stirring constantly.
3
Stir in the diced tomatoes and tomato paste. Cook for about 5 minutes, allowing the flavors to meld.
4
Add the cubed potatoes and the broth. Bring the mixture to a simmer, then cover and cook until the potatoes are almost tender.
5
Gently place the fish chunks into the simmering stew. Ensure they are mostly submerged. Cover and cook until the fish is opaque and cooked through.
6
Taste and adjust seasoning if necessary. Stir in most of the chopped cilantro and parsley.
7
Serve the fish tagine hot, garnished with the remaining cilantro and parsley, and with lemon wedges on the side.
