Nigerian Stew … The Different Types of Stew Eaten in Nigeria
There are plenty of food eaten in Nigeria and most of them are with different kind of food
in Nigeria as we often cook together rice and beans, sometimes a combination of two or more food is much more satisfying and more nutritious than even just a picture of cereals or legumes.
In Nigeria, stew serve as a common denominator for various foods.
Let's talk about the various Nigerian stew … stew in Nigeria is associated with white rice, beans, plantain, yam and Nigerian stew can be eaten with bread. In Nigeria, there are two great stew recipes, and both could go down different foods.
We have regular stew made from tomatoes (either the ground or sliced), and we have another kind of stew that is made from palm fruit (Akwu).
It is popularly called "OFE akwu" by Ibgos, one of the three major tribe and it's their favorite.
Nigerians take a stew simple process to get here and how your tomato stew.
HOW TOMATO stew.
The ingredients are: tomatoes, peppers, onions, Magi (spices), peanut oil, meat (turkey, chicken, beef or fish), spices (curry

PREPARATION

Put your cooking pot to heat and add about five spoon full of peanut oil and let the heat, add the sliced onion, cook and stir about 1 minute Add the ground tomatoes. Cook and stir for the next 20 to 50 minutes until the sour taste
eliminated.
Once the flavor is like OK, you can add the meat, magicians (Herbs), stir and taste for salt, OK? Now you are good to go!
The second most commonly eaten Nigerian stew happens if the "OFE akwu" what simple means palm fruit stew. Are you married to a Nigerian or just looking to find how delicious Nigerian food, here's how "OFE akwu" for eating rice, beans and yam.
HOW OFE AKWU (Banga SOUP) MAKE

Does cooking the tomatoes with ground meat or stock which gives it the "grease"? Also, how many tablespoons of oil in your stew?
