👨🍳 निर्देश
- 1
In a bowl, combine the fish pieces with the Creole quatre épices seasoning and malt vinegar. Toss to coat. Marinate for at least 2 hours, or preferably overnight in the refrigerator.
- 2
Lightly dust the marinated fish pieces with flour, shaking off any excess. Discard the remaining marinade.
- 3
Heat 3 tbsp of vegetable oil in a large soup pot or Dutch oven over medium-high heat. Fry the floured fish pieces for about 3-4 minutes per side until nicely browned. Remove the fish from the pot and set aside.
- 4
In the same pot, melt the butter with the remaining 1 tbsp of oil. Add the chopped onion and sauté until softened, about 5 minutes. Add the chopped garlic and thyme sprigs, and cook for another minute until fragrant.
- 5
Stir in the chopped tomatoes and cook for 5 minutes until they start to break down. Add the fish stock or water, cinnamon, and chopped Scotch bonnet pepper. Bring to a simmer.
- 6
Add the chopped green and red bell peppers to the pot. Return the browned fish pieces to the stew. Season with salt and black pepper to taste. Stir gently.
- 7
Cover the pot and simmer for at least 1 hour, or until the fish is tender and the flavors have melded. Stir occasionally, adding more liquid if the stew becomes too thick.
- 8
Serve hot, garnished with fresh oregano leaves if desired. This stew is traditionally served with rice or ground provisions.
