Recipe

1. Wash and boil your meat with onions, seasonings and salt.
2. While your meat boils, pick and slice the vegetables while getting rid of strong parts of the vegetable stalks.
3. Wash your stockfish. And after 10 minutes of boiling your meat drain the water into the bowl containing your stock fish. The water would soften the fish.
4. In another clean pot, put your sliced vegetables; with no water and little salt, boil it for two minutes. 5. Drain into a sieve to remove water after boiling.
   Into your grinder, wash your peppers and onions and blend to whichever texture you prefer.

6. Add your locust beans and little water then let it cook for a minute while stirring at intervals to prevent burning.
7. After that add your seasonings and salt to suitable taste along with your meat and stock fish as it cooks.
8. Then sprinkle the boiled vegetable into the sauce on the burner and stir to mix them all together. Add a bit of water and let it simmer.
9. Check for the taste in case you need any adjustments. And your stew is ready.
