Traditional Liberian Spiced Fish Flatbread

Assemble the ingredients: fish, paprika, bay leaf, garlic, bell pepper, flour, water.

Warm oil in a heavy pot. Add the fish and cook until spiced.

Stir in the aromatics and spices — the backbone of Liberian flavors.

Add the remaining ingredients and cook gently, stirring occasionally, until tender.

Taste and adjust seasoning; the flavor should deepen as it cooks.

Plate and serve with traditional Liberian accompaniments such as bread, rice, or fresh herbs.
