👨🍳 步骤
- 1
Roast the pumpkin seeds in a dry pan for 1-2 minutes until fragrant. Set aside.

Heat the palm oil in a skillet over medium heat. Add the chopped onion, pressed garlic, grated ginger, and chopped habanero pepper. Sauté for 1-2 minutes until fragrant.
- 3
Add the thyme, nutmeg, caraway seeds, and salt to the skillet. Stir well.

In a food processor, pulverize the roasted pumpkin seeds into a flour. Some small pieces may remain.

In a large bowl, combine the pumpkin seed flour with the vegetable broth, chopped parsley, and the sautéed vegetable mixture from the skillet. Mix until a thick, moist dough forms. Stir in the flaked smoked fish.
- 6
Warm the banana leaves briefly over a low flame or in a hot oven to make them pliable. Cut them into large rectangular pieces.
- 7
Divide the Mbika mixture into four portions. Place each portion onto a banana leaf and wrap tightly to form a parcel. Secure with kitchen string or tie the foil.

Preheat your oven to 180°C (350°F).

Place the wrapped parcels on a baking sheet and bake for 30-40 minutes, or until heated through.
