Stock fish or okporoko stew was my late Dad's all time favourite stew especially when entertaining business associates. I was gifted with some accord stock fish and I decided to recreate this recipe but with a twist, I decided to include pomo in mine and omg the combo is just out of this world. 😋😋

1

Season the stockfish properly with onions, garlic, salt and a little black pepper.. Add water and cook till almost tender, add the cleaned pomo cook a bit. Removed pomo and dtockfish from the stock. The stock from the stockfish is what you need to give the it's rich stock fish taste and aroma.
2

Put your non stick pot on medium heat. Add the oil. Throw in the garlic, give it a quick stir. As did the Gino pepper mix... Stir again... Next pour in the book fresh tomatoes mix and give it a good stir... Allow to gfy a bit... Add the stockfish stock and let it boil...
3

Once it boils till the water reduces, add the stickfish and pomo. Add the spices and taste for salt... Allow it to continue cooking... The beautiful thing about stockfish is the longer it cooks and soaks up the stew, the tastier it becomes... Same with the pomo. I love to give the pot a little shake at this junction to avoid the stew splashing all over.

Once the water level in the stew reduces almost completely, give the stew a good stir, finishing is by add some slices of fresh tomatoes into the pot. Allow to simmer for a bit and your delicious pit of Stockfish and pomo stew is ready. The addition of the slices of tomstes just take the taste to a whole different level. 😉😉
