This tends toward a cioppino or bouillabaisse, but sounds more like the Portuguese variant, caldiera.

For 12

2-3 tbls oil
4 cloves garlic
4 cups pearl onions, peeled and blanched, OR 1 pound sweet onions and 1/3 cup shallots
6 celery stalks with leafs
6 large potatoes, about 3 pounds
4-6 cups rich fish stock (how juicy do you want it?
2 cups white wine
1/2 tsp saffron
6 lemon zest strips 1/4 by 3 inches
1 tablespoon herbes de Provence
consider a couple of bay leafs
3 1/2 pounds fish, half fat, half lean, no salmon lb assorted fish
Consider:
1-2 tablespoons tomato paste
pinches of ground ginger, nutmeg, allspice and cayenne
handful flat-leafed parsley, chopped
mussels, 2 per person

Enjoy
