Pasos
- 1
In a medium pot, heat the olive oil over medium-high heat. Add the onions and cook, stirring occasionally until the onions start to caramelize.
- 2
Add the carrots and cook until the carrots start to soften, about 4 more minutes.

Add the stock, water, potatoes, bay leaves, and black peppercorns. Season with salt and bring to a boil.
- 4
Reduce heat, cover and cook for 10 minutes.
- 5
Add the millet and cook for 15 more minutes until millet and potatoes are cooked.
- 6
Gently add the fish cubes. Stir and bring the soup to a simmer. The fish will cook through very fast, so make sure to not overcook them. They are done when the flesh is opaque and flakes easily.
