Eba & Buka Stew — Garri turned properly, with the stew every buka runs on

Eba is boiling water and garri, and it still goes wrong constantly — lumps, or a texture like wet sand. The trick is the order and then leaving it alone to steam.

Method

  1. Fry the stew base until the oil floats

    Blend and reduce the peppers, then fry in the oil 15 minutes until a clear red layer rises.
