BOUILLABAISSE
Serves 4 to 6.
This fish stew is not as time consuming as gumbo, but equally as delicious. Rinse the vegetables well, drain and chop or cut as directed in the following recipe, and while the sauce for the fish simmers, ready the seafood. The recipe for the rouille, or rusty mayonnaise, is at right.

1 yellow onion, chopped
2 or 3 green onions or 1 leek, chopped
5 cloves garlic, crushed
