Fish solyanka
1-1.5 lbs fish chunks (mixed chowder fish usually works, sometimes I do half salmon and half cod)
4-5 pickles
1-2 onions, chopped
1 bay leaf
2 tbsp tomato paste
2 tbsp capers
2 tbsp butter
juice of 1/2 or 1 lemon
12 cups of water
chopped dill and/or parsley for serving
olives for serving (I prefer green)

1. Sautee the onions in butter. When soft but not yet brown, add tomato paste and pickles, sautee 5 minutes.
2. Add water, bay leaf, capers, some salt, a bit of pepper (freshly ground and maybe mixed pepper is good), bring to boil, cook 2 minutes.
3. Add fish and lemon juice, cook 5 minutes or until the fish is cookied through.
4. Serve garnished with olives, dill, and parsley.
