I don't know if this is Libyan or Tunisian, but its a delicious North African way of cooking fish. This is also great cold. I used to cook this a lot on Sundays and bring the leftovers to work on Monday. People's mouths would water when I heated it up in the microwave.

SERVES 4 -6 (change servings and units)

Ingredients

2 onions, sliced or 1 leek, sliced
5 garlic cloves, minced
1/4 cup olive oil
1 (6 ounce) can tomato paste
1 1/2 cups fish stock or water
2 teaspoons cumin
1 teaspoon crushed hot pepper
4 potatoes, peeled and sliced
2 lbs thick fish fillets (haddock and cod are best.)
2 tablespoons fresh cilantro, chopped

Directions

1
Heat the olive oil and large pan or dutch oven. Add the onions or leek and garlic and saute until soft. (Leeks are excellent in this).
2
Add stock or water, tomato paste, spices, and potatoes. Cook, covered, on medium heat for 10-15 minutes, or until potatoes being to be tender.
3
Add fish and cook, covered, for about 15 more minutes, or until fish is done.
4
Add cilantro and serve with bread, salad, lemon wedges.
