affordable and will add flavor and variety.

Chopped parsley for garnish

Saute the leeks, onions, celery, garlic and mushrooms until the onions are
clear. Add the stock, nectar or water, tomato sauce and white wine. Bring
to a heavy simmer and taste. Add the cayenne pepper and salt to taste.

Prepare the seafood and add to the pot, remembering to add first those

shells on.

Simmer until done. Serve in large bowls over spaghetti. By adding extra
fish such as a lobster per person this will become a meal instead of a
soup.
