Instructions
In a large saucepan, melt the butter over medium heat. Add the fennel, and fry for about 5 minutes, or until it is softened. Next, add the saffron, garlic, thyme, salt, and white wine, and stir to combine.
Mix in the tomato purée, orange zest, and orange juice, and cook for a few minutes.
Add the cubed salmon to the saucepan, and cook for 3-5 minutes until the salmon is cooked through.
Top the bouillabaisse with the shrimp, saffron aioli and dill. Garnish with the parsley right before serving.
Bouillabaisse
Crack the egg into a tall and narrow mixing container. Using an immersion blender, blend the egg at low speed.
Keep the blender at the bottom of the container, and slowly pour in the oil. As the mixture thickens, lift and lower the blender to create a thick and creamy aioli.
Add the saffron, lemon, chili and garlic, pulsing until combined. Season with salt, to taste.

What gives this recipe so many carbs? It seems a lot higher than some of the other recipes at 19g.

The carbs come from the vegetables, herbs and spices. The yellow circle around the 19g indicates this is one of our more moderate low carb recipes; it's not part of our keto collection of recipes.

This recipe, just made tonight, is my favorite fish soup! Thank you. My partner suggests just 1 orange, but I think it is perfection with 2.

Reducing the orange would also reduce carbs and if your partners doesn't believe the recipe would suffer... But I'm so glad you both enjoyed it!

I made a few modifications because i didn't have all of the ingredients on hand. I used tomato paste and vegetable broth instead to make the broth. Mahi mahji instead of salmon, and sherry instead of white wine. It was delicious! It's a wonderful recipe. Super light and satisfying. I love how easy the aioli was to make too! Thank you DD!!!
