I appreciate the way you cook so neat and clean, with no wastage of your ingredients. It shows how respectful you are of what you do.

[@asan7380]

Sometimes it’s good to try something different rather than traditional ways.

[@misstracy2416]

I'm sure this may be very tasty, but the Trinidad stewed fish does not use any Chinese seasonings. In fact the base is done with a roux, then you add water, ketchup and seasoning.

[@tonywilliams49]

Trini food is delicious I live in Georgia in the US. When people taste our food they're impressed. Trini to the bone.

[@squange20]

What a sweet girl, sharing her mom-in-law's recipe. It's great when in-laws get on with kids. Lovely recipe Natasha. Going to cook it today minus the annato liquid. Could not find fresh or frozen cassava by the way. Am going to use the cassava flour and keep you posted.

[@TriniCookingwithNatasha]

yes she is and we have a great relationship. I wish you could find the liquid or the seeds. yes waiting to find out how the powder works out.

[@sashamohammed9406]

I just tried it. I didn't have oucou so it tasted a little ketchupy. But it's by far the best stew fish I ever made! Thank you

[@TriniCookingwithNatasha]

Okie thank you for trying it

[@crissidoll]

Just discovered your channel and I'm soooo in love! I'm Trini and it fascinates me to hear/see others' cooking methods (even for 'common' dishes). Very grateful for you sharing your knowledge!! In love with your style of cooking. Will be recreating your dishes. You are an inspiration! 👌💞

[@TriniCookingwithNatasha]

awwh thank you for that wonderful compliment. Also welcome to my channel and thank you for subscribing.

+Trini Cooking with Natasha 😁

[@bernadettedavid8578]

This looks delicious. I will make this for my Dinner I always make a Roux before adding the vegetables because when I add the flour after it gets lumpy. I made the cassava for the second time yesterday.It was a request. Served with the Baby back ribs.Thank you soooooo much.

[@TriniCookingwithNatasha]

so happy your enjoying my recipes.

[@eyesonjesusevangelism1517]

I finally know how to make stewed fish - about to make it for the first time... thanks for the recipe... quick true story when my brother and I were kids we wanted to make stewed fish for my parents anniversary so we put sugar to brown ... well, the rest was history.

[@sashamohammed9406]

This would have been my first instinct

[@afiyabellamy9286]

🤣🙈 could relate

[@crystalarnoldfortune]

I just tried your recipe n it came out great n very tasty....thanks for sharing this with us.

[@TriniCookingwithNatasha]

crystal01ism thank you for the feed back

[@VettsClass]

Looks delicious 😋😋

[@jerrymohan5127]

Well first let me say the way your mother in law told you how to make it, that is not the way I saw my mother, grandmother and aunties did it but your way looks very good and delicious, I will try making it your way.( mother in law)

[@airamilona1555]

it's always nice to watch and learn how other people make basic dishes. I saw the occo here in Trinidad in the bottle had no idea what to do with it. lol love the oyster sauce in the fish will have to try it, and I didn't know how to add the flour I usually get flour lumps, very informative thanks.

[@jopam3]

Dawna Maria, you can also mix the flour with water, not too thick and strain it.....that way you wouldn't get the lumps.

[@TriniCookingwithNatasha]

+jopam3 true. thanks for that

[@jopam3]

Thanks Trini Cooking with Natasha!!

[@airamilona1555]

Oh ok thank you

[@jopam3]

You're welcome Dawna Maria....anything to help.

[@michellescott8541]

Thanku so much looks delicious

[@manisharamdath2159]

All Natasha food always comes out great, I always follow her recipe

[@latoshiaclemons7264]

Thank you for showing how to make this dish.

[@patriciabarclay-tobitt3723]

Looks delicious. Where is description box with the details of measurements please?.. Said it was there but I can't find it. Thank you.

[@chanardayerajaram4382]

Hi Natasha, I was looking for a recipe where you don't have to fry the fish...couldnt find any, so I made it the way I know, was delicious.

[@TriniCookingwithNatasha]

Hope you enjoy, i will work on a recipe that's not fried.

[@CarmenArjoon-lo6fx]

Cook sauce till thickened a bit, add seasoned fish and allow to cook for about 2 mins, flip cook for another 2-3 mins basting with sauce

[@5-starkitchenslimited196]

Best Stew fish ever.

[@janiceagimudie5067]

I guess people living in the City cooks differently. You don’t put Ketchup in stew fish. You use very ripe tomatoes, that gives all the flavor. Ketchup takes away from the natural flavor.

[@joannekangalee3281]

this looks very delicious can't wait to try it when I make your roucou. I enjoyed your stew fish today seasoning with that lime pepper sauce really kick things up a notch. love it

[@TriniCookingwithNatasha]

you must email me pics.

[@jopam3]

I've never seen stewed fish done this way and it sure looks interesting. So guess who's going to try it???? Yes ma'am, I am!!

[@TriniCookingwithNatasha]

yes try it out it's healthier since no sugar is used. I more see the older folks stewing this way.

[@jopam3]

I actually don't use sugar when I'm stewing fish. I fry mine, dusting with a little flour and a tad bit of cornmeal; then I sautee my veggies allowing it to come to a simmer, put in all my ingredients, then the fish last. Believe it or not, the gravy is thickened with just the flour the fish was fried with.

[@TriniCookingwithNatasha]

+jopam3 what do you use to get it red?

[@jopam3]

My Golden Ray or Mello Kreem and ketchup.

[@TriniCookingwithNatasha]

+jopam3 oh that's good to know

[@misszaheeda119]

Nice 👍

[@mudyeamos6355]

[@thegardeningwriterTT]

I think you mean “roucou”. This looks absolutely delicious!

[@Randy-k4p]

The letter R is salient

[@LadyFay88]

Would like to give this a try! Couple of questions though---> Is it necessary to fry the fish first or was that just a preference? Also, is oyster sauce similar to hoisin sauce?

[@TriniCookingwithNatasha]

It holds the sauce better,but if you don't want to you can omit that step. The oyster sauce is not as strong. I recommend not altering it.

[@LadyFay88]

@@TriniCookingwithNatasha Okay, thanks!

[@ranivonwurttemberg7174]

My mother used to make stew fish but I have never made it. Now you have me planning on cooking it..

[@type5659]

I MADE IT AND I DIDN'T HAVE CELERY SO I IMPROVISED WITH CHADON BENI AND I DID'T HAVE THE RED SAUCE ...SO IT CAME OUT A LITTLE DARKER.

[@mildridj3423]

It looks delicious

[@botl12]

this looks great i tried the last one u made (browning the sugar style) and that was awesome

[@TriniCookingwithNatasha]

ok. this is even better.

[@botl12]

+Trini Cooking with Natasha nice will try it

[@MrMalcolm220]

May I substitute the flour for sornstarch

[@empressj8272]

It's Roucou...but all in all good vid...

[@tourosmohan]

do you think it be fine to use the goya sazon seasoning coriander and annatto as im pressed for time?

[@TriniCookingwithNatasha]

Shari Mohan sure that's fine

[@_.jdt_.dbestdwarika7587]

Such a lovely girl she always answers my questions because of Natasha I can make saheena

[@trini_boi2414]

I like my stew fish not fried before tho

[@shenaqualewis9982]

What can be used in place of the roucou?

[@TriniCookingwithNatasha]

Tomato paste

[@racyracine]

Rocco not occo. The color is from the rocco fruit.

[@TriniCookingwithNatasha]

Thank you.

[@veshmahlalwah334]

[@TriniCookingwithNatasha]

[@veshmahlalwah334]

+Trini Cooking with Natasha they bake the whole pig (buccnair) i may have spelt it wrong

[@TriniCookingwithNatasha]

+Veshmah Lalwah ok will look into it.

[@trini2deeboneify]

I enjoy your recipes!

[@TriniCookingwithNatasha]

[@jeffersgrell8084]

Roocoo not occoo

[@Jemmie004]

Can i do this without the roucoo? Is there a flavor substitute?

[@TriniCookingwithNatasha]

Of course just omit it.

[@terrirannp]

I know for pastelles ppl use tomato paste as a substitute for roucou. Not sure if that can apply here

[@TriniCookingwithNatasha]

@@terrirannp sure
