In a large blender, combine the 4 Habanero Peppers and 3 ½ Medium-Sized Yellow Onions and pulse until well blended then set aside
In a large sauce pan on medium heat, add 2 Cups of Palm Oil
Once the Palm Oil is hot, add the chopped onions and the small piece of Salted Tilapia (Koobi) and allow it to cook for 2-3 minutes
Add the blended onions and pepper and cook for 20 minutes on medium heat
Add the Diced Tomatoes and 1 Tsp of Table Salt and allow it to cook for 30 minutes on medium heat
Pour the water from the Mackerel and set aside (you will need this later on) and add the full can of Mackerel to the simmering pot and taste for salt; add 2 Tsp of Table Salt (based on preference) and allow it to cook for 25 additional minutes
While cooking the stew, cook the Okra in a separate pot with the water from the Mackerel – (do not add any additional water), add ¼ Teaspoon of Baking Soda and cook for about 10 minutes then use a masher to mash the Okro until you get your preferred size
Add the assorted meat and the stock to the stew and taste for salt. This step is very important because you will add the Okro afterwards and you absolutely should not add any salt after you add the Okro – trust me, your stew will not turn out too well
Once you are sure the salt is to your satisfaction, fold the Okra into the Stew gently and stir until well combined
Turn off the stove and enjoy the Okra Stew with Kenkey or Banku!
