    Cut the remaining potatoes in half. Cover and cook in boiling salted water for about 20 minutes.

  5. 5

    Heat 1 tablespoon of butter in a saucepan. Sauté onions, garlic and diced potatoes in it. Add cream and frozen peas, bring to the boil. Cover and cook for about 15 minutes.

  6. 6

    1⁄4 l Bring water and bay leaf to the boil in a wide pot or pan. Season with a little salt and pepper. Place the fish in the stock, cover and cook over a low heat for 10-15 minutes.
