Working lunches are probably one of the toughest to plan. They need to be simple, nourishing, filling, fortifying, easy to make and yet not be heavy or too elaborate. Here’s a quick fish stew that features every now and then. The fish used here were trimmings off a bunch of fillets of Sole. Make sure you use light soya here, else you’ll ruin the color.
You’ll need:
- 500gm, flesh of any white fish
- 2 Potatoes, peeled and chopped
- 1 bowl, chopped cauliflower
- 2, Boiled Eggs
- 6, Large cloves of garlic
- 1, Large onion
- pinch, mixed herbs
- White pepper
- Light Soya Sauce
- Sea Salt
- Olive Oil
- 2, Bay Leaves
Method:
- Prep:
- Finely chop the fish
- Peel the eggs, separate the yolks, chop the whites
- Mix the yolks with a little milk to make a runny paste
- Finely chop the onions
- Finely slice the garlic
- Cook:
- Heat the olive oil, add the onions and garlic
- When the onions turn transparent, add the fish, potatoes, cauliflower, saute for 2 minutes
- Add 750ml Water + white pepper, herbs, sea salt, bay leaves, chopped boiled eggs, yolk mixture and soya sauce. Mix well.
- Bring to a boil, simmer covered for 15 minutes.
- Taste and season as required. Thicken with a little cornflour if you like.
- Serve with some hot, buttered toast.



Looks simple, tasty and nutritious. Will try it soon.
