This is a recipe I came up with to go with Mate tea This is a variation of a flavorful Nigerian simmered dish. It's a lightly simmered and easy-to-eat dish.

If you can get some, use palm oil to get a real Nigerian flavor. Serve with couscous or greens. It also goes well with rice. The authentic Nigerian dish is served with pounded rice cakes that are similar to mochi. Recipe by Taiyo no matecha
