Village Mosotho Grilled Mushroom Skillet

Assemble the ingredients: mushroom, black pepper, water, bell pepper, cinnamon, paprika, bay leaf.

Warm oil in a heavy pot. Add the mushroom and cook until grilled.

Stir in the aromatics and spices — the backbone of Mosotho 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 Mosotho accompaniments such as bread, rice, or fresh herbs.
