African Stew Recipe

Most of us africans cannot do without adding stew to most of our meals. It is what we basically grow up with. We do have various ways of preparing our stews but today, I will be showing you the basic way.

Also note that this stew can take up to 1 Hr and 30 minutes if you will have to make it from scratch (from boiling the meat to blending the starter sauce – Recipe here) but if you are like me and you have everything handy then you will be done in about 20 minutes.
