👨🍳 Ohjeet
- 1
Prepare the fish: Stuff some of the minced garlic, ginger, and chopped onions into the cavities of the fish pieces. Season generously with salt and pepper.
- 2
Sear the fish: Heat vegetable oil in a large, heavy-bottomed pot or Dutch oven over medium-high heat. Sear the fish pieces until golden brown on all sides. Remove the fish and set aside.
- 3
Make the sauce base: In the same pot, add the remaining chopped onions and cook until softened, about 5-7 minutes. Add the minced garlic and grated ginger, and cook for another minute until fragrant.
- 4
Add tomato paste and cook, stirring constantly, for about 5 minutes until it darkens slightly. Stir in the chopped tomatoes and cook for another 10 minutes, allowing the sauce to thicken.
- 5
Add fish stock or water, bay leaves, thyme, and the optional scotch bonnet pepper. Bring to a simmer, then add the seared fish back into the pot. Cover and simmer gently for 20-30 minutes, or until the fish is cooked through.
- 6
Add the vegetables: Add carrots, cassava, and sweet potatoes to the pot. Cover and simmer for about 15-20 minutes, or until the vegetables are tender but not mushy.
- 7
Add cabbage and okra, and cook for another 5-10 minutes until they are tender-crisp.
- 8
Cook the rice: While the vegetables are cooking, in a separate pot, add the rinsed rice and enough water to cover it by about 2 cm. Add a pinch of salt. Bring to a boil, then reduce heat to low, cover, and simmer for about 15-20 minutes, or until the water is absorbed and the rice is cooked.
- 9
Assemble and serve: Remove the fish and vegetables from the sauce. Fluff the cooked rice and place it on a large serving platter. Arrange the fish and vegetables over the rice. Ladle some of the rich tomato sauce over the top. Serve immediately.
