Instructions

Working time approx. 30 minutes; Total time approx. 30 minutes

quick preparation and extremely delicious fish taste

Finely chop the garlic, slice the onion into thin rings, blanch the tomatoes, peel them, and dice them. Clean the spinach and tear it into small pieces. Wash the fish, pat it dry, and cut it into strips. Tear the basil. Heat the olive oil in a shallow, lidded pan and let the garlic and onion turn golden brown. Add the sliced ​​tomatoes, season with 2 teaspoons of salt, fresh pepper, and 1 teaspoon of sugar. Close the lid and bring to a boil until the diced tomatoes have broken down. Pour in a little water to make about 3/4 liter of liquid. Add the spinach and simmer covered over low heat. Now add both types of fish and let it simmer over very low heat. Shortly before the end of the cooking time, add the prawns and let it simmer for another 5 minutes – do not boil. Season again with a little salt and fresh pepper, if desired. Sprinkle with plenty of basil and serve with ciabatta bread. That was the “Exquisite” version! But there is another option for a simpler and somewhat quicker preparation. Replace the fresh tomatoes with a can of diced pizza tomatoes (then add no water, or only a little!), swap the fresh spinach for frozen leaf spinach (you can also portion it out), and replace the various fish or prawns with any type of frozen fish fillet. It’s much cheaper and tastes “almost” as good.
