Directions

Preparation:

Cut the top and bottom ends off the okra. Then slice to ½-inch pieces. Next, put to boil in enough water to cook it for 12 minutes. First, put the stove’s gauge on 6. Remove the water and put aside.
First, remove the scale from the codfish. Use a knife to separate the scale from the fish and carefully peel off the scale. Alternatively put the codfish to boil in water for 8 minutes. Once cool simply use a knife to remove the scale from the codfish. Now remove the bones, and then dice the codfish into bite-able chunks. Cover and put aside until you are ready to use it. Strip, wash, and dice all the seasonings. Put the ingredients into separate bowls.
