When I saw the original recipe in a gourmet food magazine, I thought yuk - fish and cabbage! . But, as I reread the ingredients I knew this would be a keeper. I was right, this stew is on my 5 star list! I like a soupier version so I use a 3rd bottle of clam juice, a whole cup of cream snd 1/2 cup of white wine - it's delicious!
Ingredients:
4 slices bacon, diced
1 large onion, chopped
2 (8 ounce) bottles clam juice
1 large baking potato, peeled and cut into 3/4 cubes
3 cups sliced green cabbage
10 ounces boneless skinless cod, cut into 1 inch pieces (you can substitute another firm fleshed, mild tasting white fish such as pollock)
1/2 cup heavy cream
2 tablespoons chopped chives
salt
white pepper
Directions:
1. Fry bacon in a 4 1/2 qt (or larger) sauce pan until crisp.
2. Remove bacon with a slotted spoon and drain on paper towels.
3. Add onion to drippings and sautee until golden.
4. Add clam juice and potato, bring to a boil, reduce heat and simmer until potato is tender.
5. Add cabbage, and simmer 2 minutes.
6. Add fish and simmer until fish turns opaque.
7. Add cream, bacon, chives, salt and white pepper and simmer 1 minute before serving.
