Tips & Swaps
If you can’t find red palm oil, I suggest you to use some olive oil with paprika or an annatto/achiote seasoning.
Preparation
Please, go ahead and make some white rice as side dish. Also, to make the perfect moqueca, you will need a pan/skillet to cook, a knife, spatula and a cutting board for prep. Finally, pick your favorite shallow bowl/plate to keep it warm and elegant. Ps: if you want to make a vegan/vegetarian version of moqueca stew, you can replace the fish/shrimp for 2 plantain.
