I made this fish casserole when my parents came to visit. I scored :) I made this on the BBQ, but of course, you can also do this on a stovetop or in the oven.
For 4 to 5 people
45 minutes of work
For the sauce:
2 onions
3 toes look
30 grams of butter
400 ml dry white wine
600 ml lobster stock
1 tablespoon tomato paste
1/4 teaspoon fennel seeds
1/2 teaspoon paprika
1 sprig of thyme
300 ml cream
Heads and shells of the scampi
Salt to taste
For the fish stew:
200 grams of scampi (unpeeled)
200 grams of salmon
200 grams of cod
200 grams monkfish
=> or 800 grams of fish mix of your choice
Fresh parsley for garnish
Crispy baguette on the side
Potatoes in their skins, you can find the recipe here
You can find the lobster stock:
Around Christmas and New Year: in almost every large supermarket, usually from the Lacroix brand.
All year round :
At Cru: from the brand Belfond
At Rob's gourmet market: from the brand Belfond
At large fish shops and specialty stores
At Hanos, Sligro, Van Zon: Van Lacroix and Chef. Access only with a card via business number.
Peel the scampi
Make the sauce:
Chop the onion.
Flatten the look.
Put the onion and garlic in a pot, together with the butter. Sauté briefly.
Add the heads and shells of the scampi.
Add the tomato paste, fennel seeds, paprika, and thyme. Let simmer for 2 minutes.
Deglaze with the white wine.
Add the lobster stock.
Add salt to taste.
Let this simmer for 25 minutes until about half remains.
Sieve this.
Add the cream.
Extra tip: the sauce can easily be made in advance.
Heat the BBQ to 180 degrees. We are grilling over direct heat.
Put all the fish in a heatproof dish.
Place the dish on the BBQ and let it heat up for 3 minutes.
Pour the sauce over the fish and let it simmer for 10 to 12 minutes, until the fish is poached in the sauce.
Finish with fresh parsley.
Serve with crispy baguette and potatoes in their skins; you can find the recipe here.
You can also make this fish casserole on the stove (same instructions as for the BBQ).
Or in the oven:
180 degrees, 18 minutes if you pour the sauce over it while it is warm.
180 degrees, 30 minutes if you pour the sauce over it cold.
