👨‍🍳 作り方

1. 1

   Prepare the Mopane Worms: Rinse the dried Mopane worms under cold water. Place them in a bowl and cover with hot water. Add lemon juice and let them soak for about 10 minutes to soften. After soaking, drain the worms and set them aside.

2. 2

   In a separate pan, heat the cooking oil over medium heat. Add the chopped onion and minced garlic, and sauté until the onions are golden brown.

3. 3

   Add the diced tomatoes, curry powder, paprika, salt, and black pepper to the pan. Cook for about 5 minutes, stirring occasionally, until the tomatoes begin to break down and form a sauce.

4. 4

   Add the soaked and drained Mopane worms to the pan. Stir well to coat them with the sauce. If using chili, add it at this stage.

5. 5

   Pour in the 1/2 cup of water and bring the mixture to a simmer. Cover the pan and let it cook for 15-20 minutes, or until the worms are tender and the sauce has thickened.

6. 6

   Garnish with fresh coriander or parsley before serving. This stew is traditionally served with pap or other staple foods.
