Slice the potatoes, slice the onions into half-moons, cut the red pepper into strips, and dice the tomatoes large.
Cut the fish fillets into large pieces and clean the shrimp.
Layer the olive oil, onions, garlic, potatoes, pepper, and tomatoes in a pot.
Add the salt, black pepper, bay leaves, and white wine, then cover.
Cook the vegetable base over medium-low heat for 18 minutes.
Place the fish and shrimp on the top layer and shake the pot to bring them into contact with the sauce.
Cook the caldeirada for 14 to 16 minutes, until the fish turns opaque.
Remove the bay leaves and serve hot with the bread slices.
💡 Tip: Do not limit the fish mix to one type; combining oily fish with white fish gives the pot liquor better balance.
🍽️ Serving suggestion: Serve caldeirada in deep plates with optional toasted bread and lemon wedges.
