I see in my local supermarket many different kinds of fish that I'm curious to try. What's good? How do I cook these?

Perch
Trout
Walleye
Tillapia
Catfish
Flounder
Garoupa (or Grouper)
Swordfish
Mahi Mahi
Here's a very simple recipe that you can use with almost any fish, choosing of course fish that will hold together better, so in this case you can use Mahi Mahi, flounder, Walleye, Snapper or Halibut.

Moqueca (Brazilian seafood stew)

Vegetable oil
onions, diced
garlic, minced
ginger, minced
chilli flakes
roma tomatoes, diced
red peppers, julienned
fish broth (if you can't find this at the supermarket you can substitute with vegetable broth)
salt & pepper to taste

sweat this together until juices are released creating the sauce.

Fish fillet (I would personally go with snapper for this)

once you add the fish, don't stir. let the fish simmer for a few minutes and gently turn over

praws, peeled and deveined

garnish with fresh chopped cilantro
