Preparation
- Step 1
In a large saucepan, cover the fish with 5 cups water, and bring to a boil. Turn off the heat, place the lid on and let sit for 20 minutes. Transfer the fish to a plate; when the fish is cool enough to handle, carefully remove the meat from the frames, and set aside; discard bones, head, fins, tail, etc. Strain the broth and return to the pot.
- Step 2
Add the remaining ingredients except the sausage and garnishes. Simmer gently, stirring occasionally, until the flavors are blended and carrots and rice are tender, about 15 minutes.
- Step 3
Add the reserved fish, along with the sausage, and cook another couple of minutes, or until the sausage is cooked through. Turn off the heat, taste and adjust seasoning, and let rest for a few minutes, or eat piping hot, with the garnishes.

This is a great recipe but too difficult for me. I wait for filet to go on sale, the best is Mahi, all you have to do is remove the skin after it cools. Also I add a container of spinach or other greens about 5 minutes before it is finished simmering.
This recipe was very easy. The ingredients are basic items that I already have in the refrigerator. The most challenging ingredient was probably the ginger to most people. I keep a stash of sliced ginger in my freezer for cold tonics, so no problem for me. The result was so satisfying for such a basic recipe. Just salt and pepper to taste! The rest of the flavors comes from the vegetables! I love the method of boiling the fish and reusing the broth.. I use prepackaged tilapia.
I found this recipe boring...a little lemon juice right into your bowl helps
Good basic recipe. I used defrosted Alaskan cod fillets and added shredded bok choy along with mild Italian sausage in the last few minutes. Seasoned with fish sauce and soy sauce. Used lots of ginger and two poblano peppers for mild spice.
We did not like this recipe. Will not try again.
