Description: A delicious Amazon river fish, the numbers of which are dwindling. It is as expensive as beef. Because it eats fruit, its flesh is very sweet. The flavour changes according to the diet at the time of catching. It is often cooked in a casserole where it is cooked in broth with tomatoes, shallots and parsley.
