Prawn Palava Preparation:


Method:

Place the oil in a heavy-bottomed pan and when hot add the onions and tomatoes. Cook on high heat, stirring frequently, for 5 minutes. Reduce the heat to a simmer and add the peanut butter, ensuring it's completely combined into the sauce. Add half the water at this stage. Stir well and allow to simmer for about 9 minutes, stirring frequently.

Add the remaining water, along with the thyme, chilli, salt and pepper. Add the spinach, stir into the sauce and allow to simmer for 20 minutes. Flake the smoked fish and add at this point, along with the prawns. Stir in and cook for a further 10 minutes.

Serve with boiled yams and rice.
