Ingredients
- 2 tablespoons vegetable oil
- 1 onion, finely chopped
- 2 cloves of garlic, minced
- 2 tomatoes, diced
- 2 cups cooked beans
- 2 smoked fish fillets
- Salt to taste
- Black pepper, to taste
- Fresh cilantro leaves, for garnish (optional)
Method
- In a large pot, heat the vegetable oil over medium heat. Add the chopped onion and minced garlic, and sauté until the onion is translucent and fragrant.
- Add the diced tomatoes to the pot and cook for a few minutes until they soften and release their juices.
- Add the cooked beans to the pot and stir well to combine with the onion and tomato mixture.
- Gently place the smoked fish fillets on top of the beans. Cover the pot and let it simmer for about 10–15 minutes, allowing the flavors to meld together.
- Season with salt and black pepper to taste. Be mindful of the saltiness of the smoked fish.
- Carefully remove the fish fillets from the pot and set them aside.
- Using a wooden spoon, gently stir the beans to incorporate the flavors.
- Flake the smoked fish into smaller pieces and return them to the pot. Stir gently to distribute the fish throughout the beans.
- Taste and adjust the seasoning if needed.
- Remove from heat and transfer to a serving dish. Garnish with fresh cilantro leaves, if desired, before serving.
