Recipe Summary Caribbean Fish Soup

Not just a healthy soup, it's very tasty too. I always loved this soup while growing up in the Caribbean. To my surprise it turned out to be a good warm-up drink too. Long story short, as I waited for a bus on a very cold and windy winter evening in NYC, I noticed a West Indian restaurant across the street. I ran in to get a cup of coffee or tea. The last thing on my mind was a bowl of soup. They were about to close and the only thing they had was fish soup. I took a small cup and went back to the bus stop. It warmed me up so much and reached such a good place inside me that I ran back for more.

Ingredients | Fish And Tofu Soup Recipe

2 whole fish, scaled and cleaned, or more to taste

1 lemon, juiced

8 cups water

4 green bananas, chopped

1 pound pumpkin, cut into 1-inch pieces, or more to taste

2 potatoes, chopped

2 ears corn, cut into 1-inch pieces

4 ounces carrots, cut into 1/2-inch pieces

½ cup chopped okra

4 scallions, chopped

1 hot chile pepper

2 cloves garlic, chopped

1 teaspoon salt

1 teaspoon ground black pepper

4 sprigs fresh thyme, leaves stripped

Directions

Rinse fish with lemon juice; drain.

Bring water to a boil in a large bowl. Add fish; simmer until soft, about 30 minutes. Strain fish, reserving broth. Let fish cool. Remove bones, trying to keep large pieces of fish intact.

Bring broth to a boil. Add green bananas, pumpkin, potatoes, corn, carrots, okra, scallions, chile pepper, garlic, salt, pepper, and thyme. Bring back to a boil. Reduce heat to low; simmer until potatoes are almost tender, about 10 minutes. Stir in fish. Simmer until flavors combine, about 5 minutes more.

Remove soup from heat and let stand before serving, about 30 minutes. Discard chile pepper.

Don't slit the chile pepper if you don't like a lot of heat.

When reheating leftovers, do not boil; it will break down the fish.
