Red beans soup with mushroom and umbrine

I love fish! And I love to buy the whole fish: definitely more flavour.

Here I used umbrine: it is not like salmon or cod always present in the store. So when I found it, I was really happy :)

If you can't find it, you can make exactly what I cooke, maybe with sea bream or sea bass; it won't be exactly the same, but it will still be delicious!

Ingredients:

2 ladles of red beans soup (check the recipe at: https://www.tittifood.com/post/red-beans-soup)

Mushrooms

garlic

Fresh parsley

whole umbrine or fillet (about 140 gr each)

10 cherry tomatoes

few basils leaves

half a glass of good white wine (it can be replaced with water if you don't want any alchool)

2 tablespoons extravirgin olive oil

To complete the meal: I had a glass of white wine (same I used for cooking) and a small piece of toasted wholegrain bread.

I cooked a whole umbrine for me and my parents (the whole fish was about 900 gr).

I cut it in half to reduce cooking time.

Place the umbrine in a baking tray, place the and basil leaf tomatoes around, and pour the white wine, and wrap the fish. In this way the fish will steam in the oven, leaving a nice juice at the end.

It cooked in the oven, fan 180°C, for about 30 minutes.

In the meantime, in a large pan with oil and garlic, fry the mushroom. Once cooked (about 5-7 minutes) add some fresh parsley.
