Suquet de pescado

Cultural Context

Originating from the coastal regions of Catalonia, Suquet de pescado is a traditional fish stew that reflects the Mediterranean's rich maritime culture. This dish is often prepared with fresh catch and seasonal vegetables, making it a staple among fishermen and home cooks alike. Today, variations exist across Spain, with each region adding its unique twist, but the essence of a hearty, flavorful stew remains unchanged.

1

Prepare all ingredients for the sofrito: finely chop the onion, garlic, and parsley.

Use a jarred tomato sauce that already has sofrito; if unavailable, use prepared tomato sauce or grated fresh tomato.

3

Heat olive oil in a large pot.

Add the chopped onion and sauté until it starts to brown.

5

Once the onion is browned, add the chopped garlic and parsley; sauté for about 1 minute until fragrant.

6

Add the tomato sauce and let it cook down until it is almost dry.

7

Pour in the fish stock gradually, adding more as needed.

8

Add sliced potatoes (about 1 cm thick) and season with salt.

9

Cook until the potatoes are slightly tender, checking the consistency of the broth.

10

After about 20 minutes, when the potatoes are nearly done, add the hake and squid.

11

After 1-2 minutes, add the prawns, then cover the pot to cook faster.

12

Finally, add the clams and cover until everything is cooked through, about 5 more minutes.
