Ingredients
- 2 tbsp vegetable oil
- 2 large onions, chopped
- 20g tomato purée
- 900g braising beef, chopped
- 200g smoked white fish (we used smoked mackerel, but any smoked white fish will work)
- 1 red pepper, chopped
- 1 garlic clove, crushed
- large pinch of chilli flakes
- 2 bay leaves
- 900g okra, roughly chopped
- 250g sustainably sourced palm oil
- ¼ tsp baking powder
- boiled rice, to serve
Method
- STEP 1
Heat the oil in a large pan over a low heat, and fry the onions until softened. Add the tomato purée and cook for 5-7 mins, then pour in 2½ litres water. Tip in the beef and fish. Bring to the boil and cook for 15 mins. Transfer the fish to a plate using a slotted spoon. Set aside.
- STEP 2
Stir in the pepper, garlic, chilli, bay and okra. Season with salt.
- STEP 3
Reduce the heat to low and simmer, uncovered, for 25 mins. Add the palm oil and baking powder. Simmer for another 25-30 mins, stirring occasionally. Return the fish to the pan and continue to simmer for 15 mins. Serve with rice.
