Croatian Slavonian Fish Stew Fi

This is typical slavonian meal. Use only freshwater fish. It is important to mix various fish, and it is important to put a lot of hot paprika in it. These is one of the ways of making fish paprikash, and believe me there are almost 1 million ways or, better, all adult slovenians have their own way of making ï¿½fishï¿½, as they call it.

Steps

In croatia , fish paprikash was historically cooked in large bronze pot over open fire.

Nowadays , you need a large stockpot.

Slice onion and saut it in lard until translucent.

Add all peppers , 5 liters of water , fish cut in 250 g pieces , vinegar , sliced potatoes and salt.

Cook peppers about 25 minutes.

Add tomato sauce and continue to cook another 20 minutes.

Taste and add salt if necessary.

Do not stir , just shake the pot or the fish will disintegrate.

Do not add paprika after boiling.

Do not try to cool yourself with water if it is too hot when you eat it , it will be worse.

You have to drink wine with it.
