  • Author: Anonymous

This comforting Fish and Vegetable Soup is a delightful combination of tender hoki fillets, vibrant courgettes, and flavorful fennel simmered in a luscious Napoletana pasta sauce. Finished with a dollop of chipotle-infused crème fraîche, this soup is as satisfying as it is easy to make.
