Ingredients:

1.2kg fish steaks or large chunks of fish (any firm fish will do)
3 onions, chopped
4 tomatoes, peeled and chopped
250ml peanut butter
oil for frying
salt and black pepper, to taste

Method:

Add 3 tbsp oil to a large pot and fry the fish steaks until nicely browned all over. Reduce the heat then add 500ml water and season. Simmer for five minutes then take out the fish and set aside to keep warm. Now add the tomatoes and onions to the pan and continue to simmer for 20 minutes.

Remove about 200ml of the liquid and mix with the peanut butter to form a smooth paste. Add this back to the pot and stir in. Return the fish to the pan and cook for 10 minutes more, or until the fish is cooked and thoroughly heated through. Serve with boiled plantains, Baton de Manioc, FuFu or rice.
