Instructions:

1. In a large pot, heat the olive oil over medium heat. Add the chopped onion and garlic and sauté until softened and translucent, about 2-3 minutes.
2. Add the diced tomatoes, sliced carrot, celery, and leek to the pot. Cook for another 5 minutes, stirring occasionally.
3. Pour in the fish or vegetable broth and water. If using white wine, add it to the pot as well. Bring the mixture to a simmer.
4. Add the bay leaf, dried thyme, paprika, salt, and pepper to the pot. Stir well to combine all the flavors.

6. Taste the soup and adjust the seasoning if needed.
7. Remove the bay leaf and discard it.
8. Stir in the chopped fresh parsley just before serving.
9. Ladle the hot fish soup into bowls and serve with lemon wedges on the side. The lemon juice adds a nice tangy flavor that complements the soup.
