Spicy Asian herb-infused fish and vermicelli soup.
Ingredients:
  • 200g rice vermicelli
  • 600ml fish stock or Massel vegetable liquid stock
  • 2 lemon grass stalks, finely chopped
  • 2 large red chillies, stems removed, thinly sliced
  • 2 green shallots, sliced
  • 4 (about 650g) boneless fish fillets (like ocean trout, ling, sea perch or Atlantic salmon)
  • Fresh coriander leaves, to garnish
  • Lime wedges (optional) to serve
Instructions:
  • Boil the rice vermicelli in a large saucepan of boiling water for 3-5 minutes or until softened. Drain, rinse well under hot running water, and set aside to keep warm.
  • In a medium saucepan, simmer fish or vegetable stock with lemongrass, chilies, green shallots, and fish sauce over medium heat. Then, reduce heat to low.
  • Heat olive oil in a non-stick frying pan over high heat and sear fish fillets for 2-3 minutes per side or until cooked through.
  • When ready to serve, portion rice vermicelli into heated soup bowls and place a fish fillet on top of each. Drizzle hot stock over the fish and garnish with fresh coriander leaves. Serve with lime wedges on the side, if preferred.
