I made this stew in just 30 minutes, creating a tasty and filling recipe that will warm you up and make you feel really good. Serve it with crusty bread, potatoes, rice, noodles, polenta, etc. or something exotic like fufu.

- 1 tbsp oil (I used peanut oil, but any kind you like will do)
- 1 large onion (I prefer red)
- 1 zucchini
- 1 red bell pepper
- 1 yellow bell pepper
- Any other vegetables you enjoy (I used mushrooms and broccoli)
- 3 cloves garlic
- herbs of your choice (rosemary, oregano, parsley, etc. A bay leaf would also be good)
- spices of your choice (pepper, turmeric, chilli, paprika, etc.)
- 2 500 g tins/tetra packs tomatoes (chopped, pureed, whole – just break the tomatoes up if whole – or use 1 kg fresh tomatoes)
- 1 kg fish frozen or fresh
- Roughly chop up the onions, gently fry in the oil for a minute, add the remaining vegetables, spices, herbs and garlic, fry for another minute or so, add the tomatoes and simmer for 10 minutes – add water if too thick.
- Then chop up the fish and add to the stew, simmer for another 10 minutes (15 minutes if the fish was frozen).
- You can of course vary this stew by replacing the fish with prawns, chicken or tofu. The choice is yours. Check the taste at the end and season accordingly. Thicken the stew with cornflour if you like a thicker consistency. Enjoy!
