PALAVER SAUCE



Palaver Sauce image

Typically, Palaver Sauce includes fresh beef, smoked pork or fish, and dark green leaves. In West Africa, these leaves might be "platto", "bologi," or bitter leaf. A good substitute is spinach. African natives coined "palaver" in the 19th century when European traders would parley or barter for goods. From "Classic International Recipes".**Although I rarely post recipes without trying them, in this case I did. I decided to make this today, and would like to suggest the following: I had 1 lb of stew meat, and 1 smoked pork hock was plenty...the smokey flavor was good with that, so I have reduced the pork hocks to 2 instead of 3. I used spinach, but really feel this could use a stronger green, like collards or kale. I'm adding this to the ingredient list. I've also added some garlic. I've tried to stay true to the African recipe, and feel I have done so..just made a few improvements. Add finishing salt if needed....depends on your pork hock and how salty it is!**

  • Put the meat cubes in a large pot with a ½ teaspoon salt and 1 cup water. Sprinkle ¼ cup of the onions, the garlic, and ¼ teaspoon of the ground red pepper over the meat. Bring to a boil, lower the heat, cover, and steam for 10 minutes to tenderize and flavor the beef.
  • After 10 minutes, add the rest of the onion, the rest of the ground red pepper, the tomatoes, tomato paste, fresh or frozen fish, and salted cod, if using, and let it cook together for a few minutes. The fish will break up as it cooks.
  • Add the chopped greens, stir well, and let the mixture simmer on medium to low heat, covered, for 15 minutes.
