"Ayamase" sauce is a popular Nigerian stew made with Green Peppers, Chilli, bleached Palm oil and assorted meat.
Inspired by this stew I set myself a challenge to create both a Vegetarian and Lacto-ovo Vegetarian version using assorted Mushrooms for flavour and texture.
The recipe also includes Dawadawa (fermented Locust Beans) which has a pungent smell but similar in taste to Truffles.
In keeping with the Vegetarian theme it’s best to use Truffle oil as a substitute for the fermented locust beans (Dawadawa).
Be creative and try including either Tofu or Paneer Cheese to the stew.
This stew works as a perfect base for fried rice or can be enjoyed with either Cumin or Dawadawa rice. You will find both Rice recipes on my YouTube channel, ‘Ndudu by Fafa’.
