👨‍🍳 作り方

1
Season the fish chunks with salt and pepper. Set aside.
2
In a large pot or Dutch oven, heat the palm oil over medium heat. Add the chopped onions and sauté until softened, about 5-7 minutes. Add the minced garlic and grated ginger, and cook for another minute until fragrant.
3
Stir in the crushed tomatoes and tomato paste. Cook for 5 minutes, stirring frequently, until the sauce darkens slightly.
4
Add the vegetable broth, peanut butter, and cayenne pepper. Whisk until the peanut butter is fully incorporated and the sauce is smooth. Bring to a simmer.
5
Add the cut okra to the simmering sauce. Cover and cook for 15-20 minutes, or until the okra is tender and the sauce has thickened.
6
Gently place the seasoned fish chunks into the stew. Do not stir vigorously, as this can break up the fish. Cover and simmer for 10-15 minutes, or until the fish is cooked through and flakes easily.
7
Season the stew with salt and pepper to taste. Garnish with fresh parsley before serving.
