Mafé with thiof (fish mafé)

Instructions

1. Season the fish with the lemon, salt and pepper, then brown it for 3 minutes on each side in the oil and set aside.
2. Sauté the sliced onions for 5 minutes in the same oil, then add the crushed tomatoes and the tomato paste and cook for 8 minutes.
3. Dilute the peanut paste with 200 ml of lukewarm water until smooth, then pour it into the sauce and stir.
4. Add the rest of the water, the carrots, sweet potato and cabbage cut into pieces, plus the whole chilli pepper, then let it simmer for 25 minutes.
5. Return the fish to the sauce and continue cooking for 10 minutes over very low heat, without boiling hard so it doesn't fall apart.
6. Adjust the seasoning and serve hot with white rice.
