Fish Soup

Fish soup is one of my best soups! I find it really tasty and healthy! Usually, I use fish fillets for convenience, but whole fish can be used as well!

Ingredients
300-400 gr of fish fillet (cod, monkfish, halibut, red snapper)
2 carrots
3 potatoes 
1 zucchini
1 onion
2 green peppers
3 tbsp white rice
1/3 tsp black pepper
1 tbsp salt
a little olive oil
chopped celery (about 3-4 tbsp)
lemon juice

How to Make
Boil the fish fillets for 15-20 minutes. Use a sieve to strain the fillets, keep the broth and check the fillets for remainig fish bones. At the same time boil carrots, potatoes, zucchini, onion and pepper until soften and keep aside.
 
In a pot, pour the fish broth (about 5-5.5 cups), add little olive oil, salt and pepper and let it boil. Then, add the white rise and let it cook for about 7-8 minutes. Cut carrots in slices and 1 potato in cubes. Put the rest of the potatoes, onion, zicchini and pepper in liquidiser. Add this mixture to the pot along with the cut carrots and potatoes. 
When the rice is ready, add little lemon juice and the fish fillets.
