Instructions
- Wash the okra, trim the ends and slice it into rounds.
- In a saucepan, heat the oil and sauté the sliced onion and crushed garlic for 5 minutes.
- Add the diced tomatoes and let them break down for 5 minutes over medium heat.
- Stir in the okra and gently mix for 5 minutes, then pour in the water and simmer for 10 minutes.
- Carefully place the fish pieces into the sauce, season with salt, pepper and chili, then cover.
- Cook for 10 minutes over low heat, without stirring too vigorously so the fish doesn't break up.
- Drizzle with lime juice and serve hot with white rice.
Variations and tips
Fish-free version. Replace the fish with cooked chickpeas for a vegetarian dish just as filling.
