Steps:
- To make the croutons heat oven to 200C/180C fan/gas 6. Lay the slices of bread on a flat baking tray in a single layer, drizzle with olive oil and bake for 15 mins until golden and crisp. Set aside – can be made a day ahead and kept in an airtight container.
- Use a layer of the green part of the leek to wrap around and make a herb bundle with the thyme, bay, parsley stalks, orange peel and chilli. Tie everything together with kitchen string and set aside.
- Heat the oil in a very large casserole dish or stock pot and throw in the onion, sliced leek and fennel and cook for about 10 mins until softened. Stir through the garlic and cook for 2 mins more, then add the herb bundle, tomato purée, star anise, Pernod if using, chopped tomatoes and saffron. Simmer and stir for a minute or two then pour over the fish stock. Season with salt and pepper, bring to a simmer, then add the piece of potato. Bubble everything gently for 30 mins until you have a thin tomatoey soup. When that piece of potato is on the brink of collapse, fish it out and set aside to make the rouille.
- While the broth is simmering make the rouille by crushing the garlic, chilli and saffron with a pinch of salt in a mortar with a pestle. Mash in the cooked potato to make a sticky paste then whisk in the egg yolk and, very gradually, the olive oil until you make a mayonnaise-like sauce. Stir in the lemon juice and set aside.
- Once the chunky tomato broth has cooked you have two options: for a rustic bouillabaisse, simply poach your fish in it along with the mussels, if you're using (just until they open) and serve. For a refined version, remove the herb bundle and star anise. Using a handheld or table-top blender, blitz the soup until smooth. Pass the soup through a sieve into a large, clean pan and bring to a gentle simmer. Starting with the densest fish, add the chunks to the broth and cook for 1 min before adding the next type. With the fish we used, the order was: monkfish, John Dory, grey mullet, snapper. When all the fish is in, scatter over the mussels, if using, and simmer everything for about 5 mins until just cooked and the mussels have opened.
- Use a slotted spoon to carefully scoop the fish and mussels out onto a warmed serving platter, moisten with just a little broth and scatter over the chopped parsley. Bring everything to the table. Some people eat it as two courses, serving the broth with croutons and rouille first, then the fish spooned into the same bowl. Others simply serve it as a fish stew. Whichever way you choose the rouille is there to be stirred into the broth to thicken and give it a kick.

Steps:
- Put oven rack in middle position and preheat oven to 250°F.
- Arrange bread slices in 1 layer in a shallow baking pan and brush both sides with oil. Bake until crisp, about 30 minutes. Rub 1 side of each toast with a cut side of garlic.
- Plunge lobster headfirst into a 6- to 8-quart pot of boiling water, then cook, covered, 2 minutes from time lobster enters water. Transfer lobster with tongs to a colander and let stand until cool enough to handle. Discard hot water in pot. Put lobster in a shallow baking pan. Twist off claws with knuckles from body, then crack claws with a mallet or rolling pin and separate claws from knuckles. Halve body and tail lengthwise through shell with kitchen shears, then cut crosswise through shell into 2-inch pieces. Reserve lobster juices that accumulate in baking pan.
- Cook tomatoes, onion, and garlic in oil in cleaned 6- to 8-quart pot over moderate heat, stirring occasionally, until onion is softened, 5 to 7 minutes. Meanwhile, peel potatoes and cut into ½-inch cubes. Stir potatoes into tomatoes with fennel fronds, bay leaf, saffron, sea salt, and pepper. Add stock and bring to a boil, then reduce heat and simmer, covered, until potatoes are almost tender, 8 to 10 minutes.
- Add thicker pieces of fish and cockles to soup and simmer, covered, 2 minutes. Stir in mussels, shrimp, lobster, including juices, and remaining fish and simmer, covered, until they are just cooked through and mussels open wide, about 5 minutes.
- Stir 3 tablespoons broth from soup into rouille until blended.
- Arrange 2 croutons in each of 6 to 8 deep soup bowls. Carefully transfer fish and shellfish from soup to croutons with a slotted spoon, then ladle some broth with vegetables over seafood.
- Top each serving with 1 teaspoon rouille and serve remainder on the side.

1. Heat the oil in a large deep saucepan. Add the onions and fennel and sauté over a medium heat for 5 minutes until starting to soften. Add the garlic and tomato purée and stir for 30 seconds. Pour in the wine and stock and add the tomatoes. Bring to the boil, then add the saffron, basil stalks and orange zest, cover with a lid and simmer for 10 minutes.
2. Add the mussels and stir them into the pan. Cover again with the lid, bring back up to the boil and cook for about 4 minutes until all of the mussels have opened. Take the pan off the heat and use a slotted spoon to carefully scoop the cooked mussels in their shells into a bowl, making sure you haven’t left any in the pan. Leave to cool for a few minutes while you blend the soup.
3. Discard the basil stalks and blend the soup until completely smooth – this is easiest with a hand blender. Simmer the soup, uncovered, for 10 minutes to reduce (you should have about 2 litres/2 pints 2fl oz in total at this point).
4. Meanwhile, make the rouille. Mix all the ingredients together in a small bowl, season with salt and pepper and set aside.
5. When the mussels are cool enough to handle, reserve 18 mussels in their shells, then remove the remaining mussels from their shells and place in another small bowl.
6. Season the soup with salt and pepper and add the orange juice. Add the seabass and cod, cover again and gently simmer for 3–4 minutes, then add the cooked mussels, the reserved mussels in their shells and the crayfish tails and simmer for another 2–3 minutes until heated through and all of the fish is cooked.
7. Divide the bouillabaisse between bowls, spoon some of the rouille into each bowl, sprinkle with the shredded basil leaves and serve.
Mary's Classic Tip: Give the mussels a good scrub and a couple of rinses before cooking as the shells are an integral part of the sauce and you want as little grit in there as possible. Discard any shells that remain open when tapped and, once cooked, discard any that remained closed and didn't open in the stew.
