A hearty and spicy Hungarian fish soup, made keto-friendly with added vegetables and careful ingredient selection. Omit dairy.
Ingredients
- about 910 g Mixed fish (carp, catfish, pike)
- 2 large Onion, chopped
- 1 medium Green bell pepper, chopped
- 2 medium Tomato, chopped
- 3 tbsp Sweet paprika
- 1 tsp Hot paprika
- 6 cups Fish broth
- 2 tbsp Bacon grease
- 1 tsp Salt
Original measure retained: its cup/spoon or fluid-volume standard is unspecified.
Instructions
- 1Prepare the about 910 g of mixed fish by cleaning and filleting it. Cut the fish into bite-sized pieces, about 2.54 cm cubes. If you wish, reserve the fish bones and heads to make extra broth.
- 2In a large, heavy-bottomed pot, heat the 2 tbsp of bacon grease over medium heat (176.7°C / 175°C). Add the 2 large chopped onions and cook, stirring occasionally, until they are softened and translucent, about 5-7 minutes.
- 3Add the 1 medium chopped green bell pepper and the 2 chopped tomatoes to the pot. Continue to cook, stirring, for another 5 minutes until the vegetables begin to soften.
- 4Stir in the 3 tbsp of sweet paprika and the 1 tsp of hot paprika. Cook for 1 minute, stirring constantly, until fragrant. Be careful not to burn the paprika.
- 5Pour in the 6 cups of fish broth. Increase the heat to high and bring the liquid to a boil. Once boiling, reduce the heat to low, cover the pot, and let it simmer for 15 minutes to allow the flavors to meld.
- 6Carefully add the bite-sized fish pieces to the simmering broth. Cook for 10-15 minutes, or until the fish is opaque and flakes easily with a fork. The internal temperature of the fish should reach 63°C.
- 7Taste the soup and add the 1 tsp of salt as needed. Stir well to combine.
- 8Serve the Keto Fisherman's Soup hot.
