Ewa Agoyin Stew: How To Prepare Nigerian Ewa Agoyin Stew by vinegurl(f): 7:09am On Apr 25, 2018 |
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0l-UNwV2FNo Ewa agoyin sauce/stew is a simple pepper sauce cooked in palm oil; it has a unique and irresistible aroma which comes from the fried onions and pepper; it is one of the simplest stew recipes that doesn’t require much ingredients. “Ewa” simply means Beans in Yoruba language, while “Agoyin”is a word used by Nigerians to describe people from other parts of Africa such as Ghana, Togo, Benin republic, Cotonu; the word was use to describe the way people from these regions make their beans meal and it is more peculiar to the Togolese and Cotonu people. “Ewa agoyin” is also spelled “Ewa Aganyin”. Ewa agoyin stew/sauce is usually served over mashed beans, agege bread, boiled yam and most times boiled srice. See the steps on how to cook Ewa Agoyin stew and also watch the video too. Ewa Agoyin Ingredients 1. 4 medium red bell peppers, (tatashe) 2. 3 red chillies (shombo) 3. 1 medium onion, halve into two 4. 1 tablespoon roughly broken dried peppers 5. 2 scotch bonnets 6. 1 tablespoon pepper seeds, optional 7. 1-2 seasoning cubes 8. 1 tablespoon ground crayfish 9. 1 ½ cup palm oil 10. Salt to taste How to Prepare Ewa Agoyin SteW 1. Combine all the peppers and ½ onion together to blend with just a little water and set aside. 2. Place a medium pot on heat and add palm oil into it, cover the oil to bleach for 10 minutes on high heat. 3. Chop the other onion into long stands while the oil is bleaching; at this point, the oil must have turned golden. 4. Turn off the burner and add the chopped onion and the roughly crush dried pepper to the oil and stir-fry for 2 minutes or until the onion is caramelized but not burnt. 5. Turn the heat on to medium low; add the blended pepper to the oil and fry, stirring occasionally. 6. Once the pepper is properly fried, the oil will rise to the top, season the sauce with ground crayfish, seasoning cubes and salt, stir and leave to simmer on medium heat to infuse aroma. 7. Add the pepper seeds if you’re using these and stir the sauce occasionally to prevent form burning at the bottom of the pot. You will notice the colour of the stew becoming darker which is exactly what you want, keep stirring to get your preferred colour and texture. 8. Ewa agoyin sauce is ready once it is dark and gritty. Note: I don’t really like my ewa agoyin sauce to be very dark, so I put off heat once I have achieved a slightly dark colour like what you are seeing above. Serve ewa agoyin over mashed beans. Cc.
