Fish sauce, Sea bass, Soup with tomatoes

Fish soup with tomatoes and sweet peppers

This is not bouillabaisse or fish soup, but even winter tomatoes are not able to detract from the spicy-sour greatness of such a soup. You can use cod instead of perch, and replace the mixture of herbs with ready-made seasoning for fish. The main thing is that the fish retains its structure during cooking.

  • 400 g sea bass fillet
  • 300 g mashed tomatoes
  • 10-12 cherry tomatoes
