Spicy Fish Stew


This is spicy, tasty and easy. Adapted from 'a spoonful of ginger', one of my favorite nina simonds cookbooks. The original calls for cod, i use orange roughy, and i also cut down the amount of red onions for my family's taste....add more if you like. This is good with steamed rice and crusty bread.

Steps


In a 6-quart dutch oven , heat the oil over medium-high heat until hot.
Add the garlic , onions , red chiles and green peppers.
Saute about 5-7 minutes , until the onions are slightly transparent and the peppers are tender.
Add the tomatoes , rice wine , clam juice , salt and pepper and bring to a boil.
Reduce the heat to low and simmer uncovered for 10-15 minutes.
Add the fish pieces to the tomato mixture , toss to coat , cover and simmer for about 10-12 minutes , or till fish flakes easily.
Taste for seasoning , adding more salt if necessary and sprinkle with minced scallion greens.
