STEPS

1

Rinse fish with lemon juice; drain.

2

Bring water to a boil in a large pot. Add fish; reduce to a simmer and cook until soft, about 30 minutes. Use a slotted spoon to remove fish to a plate, reserving broth in the pot. Let fish cool; remove bones, keeping large pieces of flesh intact.

3

Bring broth to a boil. Add green bananas, pumpkin, potatoes, corn, carrots, okra, scallions, chile pepper, garlic, salt, black pepper, and thyme. Return to a boil. Reduce heat to low and simmer until potatoes are almost tender, about 10 minutes.

4

Stir in fish pieces and simmer until flavors combine, about 5 minutes more.

5

Remove soup from heat and let stand before serving, about 30 minutes. Discard chile pepper.
