Wait until the cornmeal has started cooking before adding the okra to avoid an ugly green color.

Add some of the liquid from the okra to the cornmeal and cover it, allowing it to cook on low heat for a few minutes.

Once the cornmeal is thoroughly cooked, gradually pour in the remaining liquid from the okra and mix it in.

Shape the fungi by spooning it into buttered bowls while it is still hot and soft, then let it cool down to hold its shape.

In a saucepan, heat olive oil and add shallots and tomatoes, then add curry powder and all-purpose seasoning, allowing it to stew.

Add onions and bell peppers to the saucepan and continue cooking.
