About

My fish stew, while headlining Tunisian inspiration, could appear on any Mediterranean or Persian plate. It’s a simple yet elegant dish with a little twist, providing a generous helping of goodness from fish, fresh herbs and spices that make it flavoursome without being overly complicated. I would recommend any white fish such as haddock, hake, cod or coley.
