Preparation
- To make the aoli, combine the egg, yolk, garlic, salt, pepper and lemon juice in a blender. With the motor running, very slowly pour in the oils. Transfer to a bowl and refrigerate until ready to use.
- To make the soup, heat the oil in a large kettle set over medium heat and add the shallot, carrots and fennel. Cook, stirring, until the vegetables just begin to soften, 3 to 4 minutes. Add the stock, wine, piece of zest, thyme sprigs and bay leaf and bring to a boil. Lower to a simmer and cook 10 minutes. Add the tomatoes and simmer an additional 2 minutes.
- Remove the thyme sprigs, zest and bay leaf and add the snapper. Simmer 3 minutes. Add the shrimp and simmer another 3 minutes. Season to taste with salt and pepper. Transfer the soup to a large serving bowl, garnish with the grated zest, thyme leaves and 1/2 cup of the reserved chopped green fennel fronds. Serve immediately with aoli and toasted French bread on the side.
