1/2 cup olive oil
2 large onions, diced (about 1 1/2 cups)
2 leeks, white and light green parts only, split, well washed and diced (about 2 1/2 cups)
2 stalks celery, diced (about 1/2 cup)
1/4 cup finely chopped garlic
1 cup canned plum tomatoes, drained, seeded, and diced
1 teaspoon saffron threads
2 bay leaves
1 tablespoon dried thyme
1 1/2 teaspoons salt
1 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper
1/2 cup dry white wine
2 quarts fish stock
2 Idaho potatoes, peeled and diced (about 1 pound)
1 small lobster, raw and in the shell, cut into pieces
1 pound assorted fish fillets such as snapper, halibut, tilefish, cod, skinned and boned, cut into chunks
1/2 pound fresh shrimp, peeled and deveined
French baguette, sliced 1/4-inch thick (about 3 to 4 slices per person)
1/4 cup olive oil
1 to 2 teaspoons cracked black peppercorns

Steps:

Heat the olive oil in a large, heavy bottomed soup pot, add the onions, leeks, and celery, and saute until translucent, about 6 minutes. Add the garlic, tomatoes, saffron, and seasonings. Stir for about 2 minutes, then add the white wine and cook for 4 to 5 minutes, or until almost all the liquid has evaporated, before adding the fish stock. Bring to a boil, then reduce to a simmer and cook for 45 minutes. At the end of 45 minutes, add the potatoes and begin to cook. While the broth is simmering, make the Peppery Croutons by brushing one side of each French bread slice with olive oil, sprinkle with cracked pepper, and toast in a 300 degree oven until crisp (about 12 minutes). After the potatoes have simmered for 10 minutes, add the lobster. Return to a boil and cook at a strong simmer for 5 minutes, before adding the fish chunks and the shrimp and cook until the fish is just cooked, but not yet flaking apart. Remove the bay leaves, taste for seasoning, and serve immediately, garnished with the Peppery Croutons.;

Ingredients

¾ cup olive oil
2 onions, thinly sliced
2 leeks, sliced
3 tomatoes - peeled, seeded and chopped
4 cloves garlic, minced
1 sprig fennel leaf
1 sprig fresh thyme
1 bay leaf
1 teaspoon orange zest
¾ pound mussels, cleaned and debearded
9 cups boiling water
salt and pepper to taste
5 pounds sea bass
1 pinch saffron threads
¾ pound fresh shrimp, peeled and deveined

Heat the olive oil in a large saucepan, and add the onions, leeks, chopped tomatoes, and garlic. Cook and stir over a low heat for a few minutes until all vegetables are soft.
Stir in the fennel, thyme, bay leaf, and orange zest. Add shellfish and boiling water; stir to combine. Season to taste with salt and black pepper. Turn up the heat to high, and boil for about 3 minutes to allow the oil and water to combine.
Add fish, and reduce the heat to medium. Continue cooking for 12 to 15 minutes, or until fish is cooked. The fish should be opaque and tender, but still firm. Fish should not be falling apart.
Taste the bouillabaisse and adjust the seasoning. Stir in saffron, and then pour soup into a warmed tureen or soup dishes. Serve immediately.
