Brudet
Brudet is a delicious traditional Croatian fish stew that is popular in the coastal regions of Croatia. It is typically made with a variety of fresh fish, such as grouper, sea bass, or mullet, cooked in a rich tomato-based sauce with onions, garlic, and various herbs and spices. Some recipes also include vegetables like bell peppers or carrots to add extra flavor and texture.
Ingredients
- 2 pounds fish fillets assorted, (grouper, sea bass, or mullet)
- 1 pound tomatoes diced
- 1 onion finely chopped
- 4 cloves garlic minced

- 2 tablespoons tomato paste
- 1 cup fish broth or vegetable broth
- 1/2 cup white wine
- 1 tablespoon fresh parsley chopped
- 1 tablespoon fresh basil chopped

Instructions
- In a large pot or Dutch oven, heat the olive oil over medium heat. Add the chopped onion, minced garlic, and sliced bell peppers. Cook until the vegetables are tender, about 5 minutes.
- Stir in the diced tomatoes and tomato paste. Cook for another 2-3 minutes, allowing the flavors to meld together.
