Serves 3 to 4

Difficulty Easy

Prep Time 15 minutes

Cooking Time 20 minutes

Ingredients

For the broth

2 good-quality fish-stock cubes
4 cups boiling water
2-3 anchovy fillets, chopped
2-3 T chopped dill
1-2 cloves garlic, smashed
1-2 tomatoes, chopped
1 stick celery, chopped
any fish trimmings
sea salt and freshly ground black pepper

for serving

about 300g mixed fish fillets, thinly sliced
a handful of fresh green peas
250 g hot, cooked prosciutto tortelloni
or spinach-and-ricotta cappelletti
a few sprigs of dill, torn, for garnishing

Method

Over a fairly brisk heat, simmer all the broth ingredients for 10 to 15 minutes. Strain and check seasoning. Reheat, until boiling.
To serve, add the fish and peas then cover and turn off the heat. Leave for a minute or two, until just cooked.
Check seasoning. Place the hot, cooked tortelloni or cappelletti in bowls then ladle over the broth. Garnish with the dill.
Variation: Use good-quality vegetable stock or home-made chicken broth instead of the fish stock.
