👨‍🍳 조리법

1
In a large pot, render the diced smoked bacon over medium heat until crispy. Remove the bacon bits with a slotted spoon and set aside, leaving the rendered fat in the pot.
💡 전문가 팁: Crispy bacon bits can be used as a garnish.
2
Add the chopped onions to the bacon fat and sauté until softened and translucent, about 5-7 minutes.
3
Add the diced carrots, parsley root, and celery. Cook for another 5 minutes, stirring occasionally.
4
Stir in the chopped tomatoes (or canned diced tomatoes) and cook for 2-3 minutes until they begin to break down.
5
Add the sweet and hot paprika, stirring quickly to combine. Be careful not to burn the paprika.
💡 전문가 팁: Add paprika off the heat or on very low heat.
6
Pour in the water or fish stock, add the bay leaf, and bring the mixture to a boil.
7
Add the prepared fish pieces to the boiling liquid. Reduce the heat to a simmer, cover, and cook for about 30-40 minutes, or until the fish is cooked through and flakes easily. Skim off any foam that rises to the surface.
💡 전문가 팁: Do not overcook the fish, as it can become dry and mushy.
8
Season the soup generously with salt and freshly ground black pepper to taste. Remove the bay leaf.
💡 전문가 팁: Taste and adjust seasoning carefully.
9
Ladle the fish soup into bowls, ensuring each serving has a good portion of fish and vegetables. Garnish with the reserved crispy bacon bits and fresh chopped parsley.
💡 전문가 팁: Serve with crusty bread.
