Reduce heat and simmer for 1 to 2 hours, stirring frequently. Add green onions, parsley and fish. Cook over low heat until fish is done, for about 10 to 15 minutes. Do not overcook fish. serve over rice. Source: Chef Michael Richard of Cafe Vermilionville, Lafayette, LA. In Cajun land, this is pronounced Coo-bee-yon. NOTE-My mother-in-law used to add a touch of Creole mustard to her sauce. It gave it a good tangy flavor. Also she would put the filets in a baking dish, pour the sauce over and bake in the oven, so the fish would not fall apart. Contrary to what Chef Richard says, this dish is customarily served with mashed potatoes in my neck of the woods. From Gemini's MASSIVE MealMaster collection at www.synapse.com/~gemini
