    Ingredients

    • 4 cups water
    • 2 cups white wine
    • 2 celery stalks, coarsely chopped
    • 2 carrots, coarsely chopped
    • 1 pound crayfish, washed
    • ½ pounds medium shrimp, washed
    • 1 tablespoon olive oil
    • 2 medium onions, finely chopped
    • 2 medium red bell peppers, finely chopped
    • 4 medium tomatoes dipped in boiling water for 30 seconds, peeled and chopped
    • 2 tablespoons tomato paste
    • 2 tablespoons chopped fresh thyme

    • 1½ pounds see bass fillets, cut into chunks
    • 1½ pounds small squid, cleaned and sliced
