Bobó de camarão is an Afro-Brazilian dish that Brazilians love and I'm certain you will love as well.
If you can't find cassava (yuca), you can make the same recipe with yam or potatoes.
In Amsterdam, I usually buy cassava in the Surinamese toko. In NY and London, it was quite easy to find in the supermarket.
Nowadays, online supermarkets deliver everywhere! There is always a Brazilian supermarket around you :)
Thank you for the song Pamela Fom!!

Here is the complete recipe.
Let me know if you have any questions please :)
600g of whole shrimp
1 green bell pepper
1 red bell pepper
1 onion
3 garlic cloves
5 Tbs Dende oil
1 cup coconut milk
300g cassava
2 ripe tomatoes
1 lime
1 red chili (optional)
1 bunch coriander
____
Clean the shrimp
Clean the shrimp by removing the head and the shell of the shrimp. Set aside.
Score the shrimp and remove the vein.
Add lime juice to the shrimp and let marinate in the fridge until you are ready to use.
____
For the shrimp stock
In a stock pot or a large pan, add 2Tbs of dende oil (or other oil you have available) and fry the head and shell of the shrimp, once the shrimp gets a pink color, add water to cover.
Tip. Add some pieces of onion and garlic to add flavor.
Simmer for at least 40min.
____
For the Cassava.
With a vegetable peeler, peel and cut the cassava into small pieces.
Add to a large saucepan and cover with water. Add a pinch of salt.
Let it cook until you are able to purée with a whisk or a potato masher. If you have too much water in the pan and the cassava is soft already, you can strain it and purée after.
Make sure you remove the heart of the cassava.
__
Chop the onions into small cubes, dice the bell peppers, minced the garlic and the chili (optional) and deseed the tomatoes before cutting into cubes. Chop the coriander.
In a large saucepan, add 3 Tbs of dende oil, quick fry the shrimp (don’t cook all the way through), season with salt and pepper. Remove from the pan and set aside.
Sweat the onions and the bell peppers, once ready, add the garlic and the chillies, let it cook for a few more minutes. With medium heat, add the cassava and mix well. Add the shrimp stock gradually mixing well until reaching a very loose purée consistency. Add the chopped tomatoes and the coconut milk. Adjust the seasoning, adding more salt and pepper if needed.
In the end, add the shrimp, mix well, and finish with lime juice and coriander.
Serve with rice and some farofa (cassava flour)

Uma receita que é a cara da Bahia de todos os santos e de todos os gostos e temperos da Mama Africa. Gostei muito da sua receita, vou experimentá-la aqui na Itália. Vai ser difícil achar o dendê... Será que fica bom também com azeite de oliva? Parabéns pelo canal e receitas, você é muito simpática.

Fica otimo com Azeite de oliva, mas existem mercados brasileiros que entregam na europa. Na holanda também é bem difícil encontrar o dendê. Eu achei em um mercado de produtos orgânicos. Procura Red Palm oil no google que talvez você encontre. Até no amazon eu já comprei :)
