Catfish Stew
Grilled catfish simmered in a rich, oil-floated Nigerian tomato and tatashe stew — smoky, spicy and perfect over rice, yam or boiled plantain.
Catfish Stew is one of Nigeria's most comforting fish dishes — smoky grilled catfish resting in a deep-red, oil-floated tomato and tatashe base, gently spiced with scotch bonnet and enriched with dried king prawns. Grilling the fish first keeps every piece intact and adds a smoky note that shines through the sauce. Serve it over white rice, boiled yam or plantain for a proper Nigerian meal.
