Konkoé

Konkoé is a traditional African food originating from Guinea. To prepare this dish, one must cook until the fish and vegetables are opaque and the sauce has thickened. Konkoé is often served with white rice.

Steps to make Konkoé:

• Step 1. Drench the catfish chunks for 6 hours in lukewarm water.
• Step 2. Simmer the catfish chunks for 20 minutes in water. Then remove the water. In the meantime, peel and chop the garlic and onions into tiny pieces. Next, place them in a mixer.
• Step 3. Put in the skinned tomatoes and shrimp cubes. Once done, blend until they become smooth.
• Step 4. Combine this mixture with the catfish in a saucepan. Simmer them. While waiting, you could prepare the veggies. First, peel and quarter the potatoes. Next, rinse the aubergines, and cut the 12 raw okras in half lengthwise (remember that 2 of them should be cut into tiny pieces).
• Step 5. Prepare the rice. Cook the two cut okras in water for 5 minutes, then drain them and combine with the prepared rice.
• Step 6. Combine all veggies in a pot with the marinara sauce. Cover the pot with a lid. Do not forget to reduce the heat.
• Step 7. Simmer for a further 10 minutes. Sprint some zomi and salt on the potatoes after they are done.
• Step 8. Cook and stir for a few minutes. Your food is now prepared!
