Start by washing the mocotó and chopping the onion and garlic coarsely.

In a large pot on the stove, add 2 tablespoons of oil and heat it up.

Add the chopped onion, garlic, and finger pepper to the pot, along with olives to taste.

Sauté until fragrant, then add the chopped tomatoes, vegetable broth cube, oregano, colorau, and some parsley and green onion, reserving some for later.

Add salt to taste and then add the cleaned mocotó to the pot.

Pour in enough water to cover the mocotó and let it cook for about 1 hour.

While the mocotó cooks, chop the mandioca into small pieces, removing the fibrous part.

After 1 hour of cooking, add the chopped mandioca and a piece of calabresa sausage to the pot.

Close the pot and let it cook for an additional 4 minutes, adding a cup of water to prevent it from drying out.

While the mocotó and mandioca cook, prepare the okra by washing and cutting it, then frying it in a separate pan without stirring to avoid sliminess.

Once the dish is ready, serve it hot, garnished with parsley and the fried okra.
