Steps

  • Heat olive oil in a casserole dish and fry the shallots, leek, carrot, fennel, garlic, and celery for 10 minutes until soft.
  • Add tomato purée, chopped tomatoes, white wine, and brandy and simmer until the liquid is reduced by half.
  • Stir in 300g of chopped salmon and cod and cook for 5 minutes.
  • Add 900ml of fish stock, bay leaf, tarragon, and cayenne pepper, then cover and simmer for 40 minutes.
  • Blend the mixture and pass it through a sieve, pushing it through to extract maximum flavor.
  • Return the sieved sauce to the dish, bring it to a boil, and add the assorted seafood and cooked vegetables.
  • Simmer for 4 minutes until the fish is cooked, then stir in the double cream and parsley.
  • Add lemon juice, season with salt and pepper, and serve with bread and mayonnaise.
