    Remove the bay leaf from the stew. Taste and adjust the seasoning if needed.
  7. 7.
    Serve the Liechtensteiner Fish Stew hot, garnished with fresh parsley.

Treat your ingredients with care...

  • Fish — Ensure the fish fillets are fresh and of high quality. If freshwater fish is not available, you can use a combination of white fish fillets such as cod or haddock.
  • Dried thyme — If you prefer a stronger herbal flavor, you can use fresh thyme instead of dried. Simply double the amount of fresh thyme leaves.

Tips & Tricks

  • For a richer flavor, you can add a splash of white wine to the stew while simmering.
  • Serve the fish stew with crusty bread to soak up the delicious broth.
  • Feel free to customize the vegetables based on your preference or seasonal availability.
  • If you prefer a spicier stew, add a pinch of chili flakes or a dash of hot sauce.
  • Leftovers can be refrigerated and enjoyed the next day, as the flavors tend to develop and intensify.

Serving advice

Serve the Liechtensteiner Fish Stew in deep bowls, allowing the aromatic broth to surround the fish and vegetables. Garnish each serving with a sprinkle of fresh parsley for a pop of color and added freshness.

Presentation advice

To enhance the presentation, arrange the fish chunks and colorful vegetables on top of the stew, creating an enticing visual appeal. Serve the stew with a side of crusty bread or a slice of lemon for an extra touch of elegance.
