Ingredients

  • Oil palm fruits or canned oil palm fruit concentrate
  • Dryfish or smoked fish
  • Unshelled periwinkles
  • Assorted meat and fish
  • Ponmo , washed and cut into small pieces
  • Stockfish
  • Onion , sliced
  • Stock cubes
  • Ground crayfish
  • Fresh ata rodo ( habanero or scotch bonnet chiles ), blended to a paste
  • Atama leaves

Directions

1

If using fresh palm fruit, process them to extract the juice. Set aside.

2

Debone, soak, and clean both the dryfish fish. Rinse in cold water, making sure they are free from sand, and break them into small pieces.

3

Cut periwinkles with the blunt side of a knife, and wash thoroughly until the water runs clear.

4

Transfer the periwinkles to a pot of water, and boil with a pinch of salt for about a while. Drain off the water and set the periwinkles aside.

5

Place the meat, ponmo, and stock fish in a pot. Cover them with as little water as possible, then add the onion and the stock cubes. Cover and cook until tender.

6

Add the deboned dryfish.

7

Boil the palm fruit juice/concentrate in a separate pot until oil floats to the surface.

8

Add all the ingredients, assorted meats, fish, and salt to taste. Stir gently and leave to simmer.
