Ingredients:


2 teaspoons olive oil

1 cup thinly-sliced leeks

1 cup thinly-sliced fennel

4 cups boiling water

10 ounces all-purpose potatoes -- pared, and cut into 1/2 inch pieces

1 tablespoon minced fresh thyme leaves -- (or 1 pinch dried thyme)

1/2 teaspoon salt

1/4 teaspoon freshly-ground white pepper

10 ounces red snapper fillets -- cut into 1 1/2 inch by 1 inch pieces

2 tablespoons minced fresh flat-leaf parsley

1/4 teaspoon hot pepper sauce
 

Preparation / Directions:


In a large nonstick saucepan, heat oil; add leeks and fennel. Cook over medium-high heat, stirring frequently, 5 minutes, until vegetables are softened. Add water, potatoes, thyme, salt, and pepper to vegetable mixture; bring to a boil. Reduce heat to low; simmer 15 minutes, until potatoes are just tender. Add fish to potato mixture; stir to combine. Simmer 3 minutes, until fish flakes easily when tested with a fork. Stir in parsley and hot pepper sauce. Comments: This hearty soup thickens upon standing; before reheating, add water, a few spoonfuls at a time, until the soup reaches the desired thickness.
