Ingredients

  • 1 cup fresh ager leaves
  • 2 tablespoons palm oil
  • 0.4 kg beef , rinsed
  • 1 smoke-dried catfish , rinsed
  • 2 teaspoons nune (locust bean cake)
  • 1 Maggi cube
  • 3 fresh bell peppers , blended
  • 5 medium tomatoes , blended
  • 1 teaspoon salt or to taste

Directions

1

Scrape off the white flaky skin of the ager stalk. Pound gently for a few minutes to remove the ager pulp.

2

Squeeze the pulp in a small amount of water to extract the slippery juice. Sieve this product to separate the juice from the fibres.

3

Heat a little water in a pot, and add the ager juice.

4

Add the palm oil, blended pepper, blended tomato, beef, and fish. Cook for few minutes, stirring continuously until an elastic consistency is achieved.

5

Add nune, maggi cubes, and salt to taste.

6

Serve with swallows as desired.
