Maqueca

We had the chance to go to the African market today to find the ingredients to make the Bahian cultural dish, maqueca. This is a kind of fish stew served over rice, and it is delicious!!

The main ingredients are fish, coconut milk, palm oil, and chopped tomatoes, onions, and peppers. It's stewed together, garnished with cilantro, and served straight in the pot.

We have the recipe, straight from a professional Bahian chef who specializes in traditional cultural food...
