Method

1. Boil 1.3 litres of water in a kettle
2. On a low heat place your saucepan on the stovetop

13. When ready, serve in two soup bowls, placing a sprig of coriander on top.

Inspiration

• You could try scallops instead of white fish.
• Chunkier vegetables like carrots or butternut squash can be used instead of the courgettes and okra.
