Ingredients

3 cup oil
2 cup flour
1 cup rough-chopped onions
2 cup rough-chopped celery
2 cup rough-chopped green pepper
2 cups rough-chopped tomatoes
3 bay leaves
1 lb small fish fillets, skin on
2 Tbsps chopped parsley
3 Tbsps chopped green onion
Creole spice

Directions

In a soup pot heat oil, whisk in flour to make a thin roux, and cook 3-5 minutes, whisking, until raw flour taste has cooked out. Add onions, celery, and green peppers and cook until tender. Stir in tomatoes and bay leaves, reduce heat to very low and simmer 1 hour. A film or crust will form on top of tomatoes; do not stir. Add fish fillets, cover tightly, and cook 5 minutes.

Remove fish to serving plates or a platter, sprinkle with parsley and green onions and adjust seasoning with Creole spice. Serve over rice.

Got this from www.emerils.com HEARTY FISH STEW from Essence Of Emeril EE72 Ingredients needed: 1/4 cup oil... 1/2 cup flour 1 cup rough-chopped onions 1/2 cup rough-chopped celery 1/2 cup rough-chopped green pepper 2 cups rough-chopped tomatoes 3 bay leaves 1 pound small fish fillets, skin on 2 tablespoons chopped parsley 3 tablespoons chopped green onion Creole spice In a soup pot heat oil, whisk in flour to make a thin roux, and cook 3 to 5 minutes, whisking, until raw flour taste has cooked out. Add onions, celery, and green peppers and cook until tender. Stir in tomatoes and bay leaves, reduce heat to very low and simmer 1 hour. A film or crust will form on top of tomatoes; do not stir. Add fish fillets, cover tightly, and cook 5 minutes. Remove fish to serving plates or a platter, sprinkle with parsley and green onions and adjust seasoning with Creole spice. Serve over rice. Yield: 4 servings When I made the recipe from food network, it came out thick like beef stew(due to 3 to 2 ratio). So I found the recipe on emerils.com and after I made the rue and put all the vegetables in, there was no liquid in the pot to allow it to simmer for an hour. The only thing that I thought to do was to add water. The recipe doesn't say to do so, but how else is it suppose to turn out to look like the picture?!Read more
