| Lakh-Lalo - Fish
(Fish Stew)
Cooking Recipes Ingredients:
1-2 lbs. Dried salted fish
3 large onions, finely chopped
12-16 okra, chopped, or 1 small package frozen okra
4-6 tbsp. Olive oil
3 large tomatoes
2 chilli peppers or 1 tsp. Cayenne pepper
Cooking Recipes Directions
Soak fish in water for several hours. Drain. Then bring 4
cups fresh water to a boil and drop in the fish pieces. Reduce
heat and let simmer.
Meanwhile, combine half the onions into a paste. Add them
to the fish.
In a separate pot, heat oil to a moderate temperature, put
in remaining onions and sauté until golden brown. Chop
the tomatoes and stir them in. Cover with boiling water, about
1 cup, and add pepper. Reduce heat and simmer.
Cover both pots and let them cook for 45 minutes or so, stirring
occasionally. Then uncover the fish and okra mixture and let
both pots continue to simmer for another 30-40 minutes, stirring
as necessary to prevent sticking. To serve, combine the two
mixtures and serve over stiff corn-porridge.
