| Sun Dried Tomato Bouillabaisse   |
|
|
|
Along the Riviera, this is a casually assembled meal. There are as many
variations of the recipe as there are cooks and varieties of fish. By
including our Sun Dried Tomato Sauce, we have added a rich flavour to
the dish and eliminated the time involved preparing the tomatoes. This
is a perfect dish to serve a crowd. You can prepare the soup several
hours ahead and add the fish just before serving. Serves 8 appetizer
sizes and 4 dinner sizes.
