Season the yellowtail snapper and dr fish with Maggie fish seasoning and all-purpose seasoning, then set aside.

Prepare the other ingredients: corn, carrot, chocho, turnip, pimento seeds, pumpkin (some cut large for smashing), potatoes, okra, scallion, and fresh thyme.

Boil water in a pan, then add the fish and some pumpkin, allowing it to boil for about 5 minutes.

While the fish is boiling, prepare dumplings by making both splinter and round shapes.

After 5 minutes, remove the fish from the pot and debone it carefully, setting the flesh aside.

Add corn, chocho, turnip, carrot, potatoes, and pieces of pumpkin (both large and small) to the pot, stirring and allowing to cook.

After about 10 minutes, sift the fish tea to remove bits, then add one pack of Maggie seasoning to the pot.

Add scallion and thyme, taste the pot, and adjust seasoning with more all-purpose seasoning if needed, avoiding salt due to the fish tea pack.

Add okra and pimento seeds, then return the deboned fish and prawns to the pot, cooking for an additional 5 minutes before serving.
