Transfer the browned meat to an oiled aluminum pan and dehydrate in the oven at 350°F for about 3 hours, mixing periodically.

Prep the ingredients by washing and chopping onions, green pepper, basil, ginger, peppers, garlic, and fennel.

Blend the onions first, then add the other ingredients and blend until combined.

Cook the blended mixture in a pan over medium-high heat until moisture evaporates, then add oil and lower the heat to prevent burning.

Add 8 ounces of frozen tomato paste to the mixture and fry for 20-30 minutes until dissolved.

Add minced meat to the mixture and stir; allow to fry for 15 minutes before adding shrimp and fish powder.

Simmer for an additional 15-20 minutes.
