Pick a Pepper Soup is a traditional Equatorial Guinea recipe for a classic stew of red snapper with tomatoes, onions, chillies and spices that's served with rice. Ingredients:
360 ml water |
450 g red snapper fillets (or any firm white fish) |
3 medium onions, peeled and sliced |
2 tomatoes, chopped |
1 red bell pepper, de-seeded and chopped |
1/4 teaspoon cayenne pepper |
1/2 habanero chili, de-seeded and pounded to a paste |
1 bay leaf |
1/4 teaspoon dried basil |
1/2 teaspoon salt |
1/2 teaspoon black pepper |
1/2 teaspoon paprika |
1/2 teaspoon ground pepper |
1 pinch dried rosemary |
1 tablespoon lemon juice |
1/2 teaspoon vegetable oil |
Directions:
1. Bring the water to a boil in a large pot and add all the ingredients except the vegetable oil. Cover the pot and allow to simmer gently for 1 hour, stirring occasionally (add more water if the mixture becomes too dry). After the hour is up add the oil and cook for a further 5 minutes. Remove the bayleaf and serve on a bed of rice. |
