This dish has Portuguese origins, but is counted as the national dish of Guinea-Bissau.
Ingredients:
1.5kg white fish cut into fillets
3 onions, sliced into rings
6 tomatoes,
blanched, peeled and sliced
1kg water yam, peeled and cut into chunks
green bananas, quartered
green bell peppers, de-seeded and sliced
250ml oil
salt
2 hot
chilli peppers
Method:
Place alternate layers of onions, peppers, potatoes, tomatoes, fish and tomatoes in a saucepan. (Make sure you season the fish with salt and chopped chillies along with a drizzle of oil.)
Add enough water to just cover and cook on medium heat. Agitate the pot every now and then to make certain that the contents do not stick to the bottom. Continue cooking until the vegetables are tender and the fish is done (about 35 minutes).
