Cotriade (Kaoteriad in Breton) is a fish stew speciality from the French region of Brittany that is made with different kinds of fish, as well as potatoes, onion and garlic. [1] [2] Oily fish are typically used, such as herring, sprats and mackerel. [1] Unlike bouillabaisse, another French stew, it usually does not contain shellfish. It is traditionally served by pouring it over toasted baguette. Other breads may also be used. [3]
It is also very prominent in other French regions surrounding Brittany due to the access to the sea.[ citation needed]
It is known in the UK as Brittany Fish Stew. [4]
