PAMPATA STEW

Posted by Unknown

Ingredient: Pumpkin leaf (ugu) or spinach, fresh tomatoes, fresh pepper and onions, dry fish preferably kpanla, knorr cube, salt and vegetable oil you can add beef if you wish.





PREPARATION:

Dice your tomatoes, pepper and onions, then fry just like the way we fry our fresh tomatoes/tin tomatoes (you can use fresh alone), after frying, spice well with your preferred ingredients, then add your dry fish (kpanla fish) which we fondly call "aunty nwanne's" fish (if you're using beef then add as well). Make sure it’s to your taste then add your vegetable leaf (ugu) or spinach gently. Remember, what you’re cooking is called Pampata stew so there must be plenty of vegetable or (spinach leaf). Do not add any other water as the only water must come from the vegetable. But whatever quantity of vegetables you put into the pot it must blend with the stew. Meaning you must use your discretion while adding your vegetable, wait for about 2 to 3 minutes and your Pampata stew is ready.


You can eat your pampata with white rice, boiled yam, plain beans, boiled plantain or Irish potato.


NB: To make your pampata stew taste more like a Pampata stew, i advice you use Aunty Nwanne's fish, which is kpanla fish... hmmmmm delicious flavour.
