Ingredients
- 1.2 kg mixed river fish (carp, catfish, pike), cleaned and cut into thick pieces
- 1 kg onions, finely chopped
- 3 tbsp sweet paprika
- 1 tsp hot paprika (or to taste)
- 2 tbsp tomato paste
- 1½ tsp salt
- 8 cups water
- 2 bay leaves
- 1 fresh chilli (optional)

Method
- Put the onions in a wide pot with the water, salt and bay leaves. Simmer for 40 minutes until the onions have melted away.
- Push the onions through a sieve back into the pot (or blend them).
- Stir in the tomato paste and both paprikas, and add the chilli if using.
- Lay the fish pieces in the pot and simmer gently, without stirring, for 20 to 25 minutes – shake the pot now and then instead.
- Serve in deep bowls, sprinkled with parsley.
Gluten-free check: Buy paprika that is pure ground paprika, with nothing added.
