Method:

1 In a large potjie, heat together the oil and butter. Add the onions, garlic, ginger and seafood spices and fry for 2 minutes.
2 Add the mushrooms, tomatoes, fish stock, sherry, sugar and soy sauce and simmer gently for 15-20 minutes.
3 Add the basil and half the parsley, then remove three quarters of this mixture from the pot and layer it, alternating with the seafood. (Start with the white fish, then the prawns, then the marinara mix.)
4 Add the lemon juice, secure the lid and allow to simmer for 20 to 30 minutes without stirring.
5 Just before serving, add the cream, mussels and the remaining parsley and heat through for about 5 minutes. Serve with white rice and a green salad.
