Number Of Ingredients 12
Steps:
- Okra stew: 1. Defrost the spinach. 2. Place the dried mushrooms in a bowl and fill with enough boiling water so they are covered. Weigh them down. Soak about 30 minutes, until they are plump. Lift (with for example, a slotted spoon) the mushrooms out of the liquid. Place the mushrooms in a bowl of cool water and slosh around. Lift the mushrooms out, and rinse the bowl. Fill with cool water again and place the mushrooms in. If there is grit in the bowl the second time, repeat. Let the mushrooms cool. Remove and discard any tough stems. Coarsely chop the mushrooms. Strain the (original) soaking liquid through a coffee filter or paper towel set in a sieve. Set aside the mushroom liquid for use. 3. Add the mushrooms and some of the strained broth to a large pot and saute a little bit. Add a little broth whenever necessary. After cooking for 10 - 15 minutes, add the spinach. 4. Finely dice the onion and the okra. Heat the oil in a skillet. Stir fry the onion and okra for about 5 minutes. 5. Add the okra to the stew. Also add salt and pepper to taste. And any broth if needed. 6. Cover and simmer for at least 30 minutes. 7. Cut the seaweed into strips. Add to the pot and cook for 5 minutes. Cassava fufu: 1.
