I made Palmnut stew for the first time using Sweet Liberia palm cream and I'm never turning back😋

palm nut extract

🥗Healthier: coconut milk

💰Cheaper: vegetable broth

Coconut milk offers a similar creaminess while being lighter.

meat (beef or goat)

🥗Healthier: chicken

💰Cheaper: pork

Chicken is often more affordable and lower in fat.

bitter leaf

🥗Healthier: spinach

💰Cheaper: kale

Spinach is more accessible and provides similar nutrients.

scotch bonnet pepper

🥗Healthier: jalapeño

💰Cheaper: bell pepper

Jalapeños provide heat without the cost of specialty peppers.

Blend palm nuts with water until smooth and extract the liquid.

Heat a pot over medium heat and add the palm nut extract.

Add chopped onions, garlic, and ginger; sauté until fragrant, about 3-4 minutes.

Incorporate the meat and cook until browned on all sides, about 5-7 minutes.

Add fish and seasoning cubes; stir to combine.

Pour in additional water to reach desired consistency and bring to a simmer.

Season with salt and add scotch bonnet pepper for heat.

Simmer for 30-40 minutes, stirring occasionally, until meat is tender.

Add bitter leaf and okra; cook for an additional 5-10 minutes.

Adjust seasoning to taste and serve hot with rice or fufu.
