"I found this recipe in a Newspaper many years ago and I believe that it is an African dish if my memory is correct, although don't quote me on it. "This takes a little while to make but it's VERY delicious and worth the effort." The flavors are unique and wonderful!"

Thanks to Pic A Chef I picked this unknown recipe to try. This was a totally different recipe to try. Loved the flavors. They bleneded so well. I chose to put the hot peppers on the side letting everyone have it their way for hotness. Will be making this dish again.
