Once upon a time I had swordfish with some type of tomato cream sauce. It was so delicious nothing has compared since. I bought some swordfish. Any ideas for a tomato cream sauce?

I'm wondering if you could make a basic white fish sauce and just add some tomatoe soup to it? Was it something like that?

I don't know what a basic white fish sauce is.

I just heat up a spoonfull of butter and saute some onions in it then add milk and pepper, heat it up but don't scald it and thicken it with a little flour. It's just a basic white sauce.

I'm gonna go check my recipe book to see if there's a cream tomatoe sauce recipe. BRB.

That's how I make milk gravy only without the onions. I thought it was a special fish white sauce. Duh. I need to put my brain in my head. Hope you find something good. Thanks.

Didn't find anything in the recipe book.

Now I'm wondering if it was a tomatoe/heavy cream/cheese combo?

I don't remember cheese being an ingredient.

Good your narrowing it down, was it sweet?

no not sweet, tomatoey (is that a word), not real thick but thick enough that you could tell it was on the fish. I don't remember cheese or onions.

Hmmm. I'm wondering if you could just add some tomatoe paste to your basic white sauce?

...without the onions

I've seen plum tomatoes sauted in olive oil then pureed. You add heavy cream and heat then pour over shrimp and angel hair pasta. I wonder if it's the same idea.

I think I'll try that, sautee some tomatoes then add heavy cream and see what happens. Sounds good anyway. Thanks for helping. I'll let you know tomorrow night.

Not a problem...I love to cook. Although I like eating more

mathias, the culinary arts kid, says put thin layer of olive oil in pan, then saute minced garlic, sweet onions or shallots, diced roma tomatoes, and a dash of sea salt. add pepper to taste (he says fresh) when garlic is golden, pour in half pint heavy whipping cream, simmer and add cheese to thicken.

I have sea salt and fresh pepper. I like tomatoes but don't like garlic or cheese. I'll have to modify his idea but thanks a bunch.
