This is a simplified version of the bouillabaisse . In some places
in france, they use much more garlic. as well as squid, red snapper,

teaspoon dried whole saffron dissolved in a little boiling water.
When water becomes amber color, add to bouillanaisse

Reviewer: Philip Chao from Brooklyn, NY
This recipe makes a decent passable bouillabaise but it definitely needed some ingredients to spice it up. I would reduce the stock to increase the flavor of the soup base. Add fresh chopped italian parsley or cilantro at the end. And maybe a dash of oregano also... into the soup base.
The ingredients can be any fish. But definitely the soup base has to be strong enough to coat and flavor any fish - however strong in the dish. Perhaps also sauteing the fish before adding it in garlic and salt might help.
