Instructions
- Season the fish chunks with the salt, pepper and paprika, then set aside.
- Heat the palm oil in a pot and sauté the thinly sliced onions until golden.
- Add the garlic, chopped tomatoes, tomato paste and sliced chilies, then cook for 5 minutes.
- Pour in the water and simmer for 10 minutes to get a well-combined sauce.
- Gently lay the fish chunks into the sauce.
- Simmer over low heat for 15 to 20 minutes without stirring too hard so the fish stays intact.
- Add a squeeze of lime if you like and serve with white rice.
Variations and tips
Milder version. Remove the seeds from the chilies or use just one for a less fiery flavor.
