Thiébou yapp Recipe
This stew is a variation of the Senegalese national specialty thiébou jen, which uses fish instead of meat.
Typical ingredients include onions, garlic, bell peppers, cabbage, eggplants, habanero peppers, mustard, carrots, tomatoes, paprika, vinegar, oil, and chopped parsley.
To make your Thiébou yapp, you start by peeling the carrots and cutting them into slices.
Wash and cut the pepper and the onions into slices too, put them in a bowl of a blender and add the jar of sweet corn, the olives, pepper, vinegar to your taste and 1 culinary cube.
Mix the mixture well and store it aside. Boil the eggs, wait for them to cool and cut them into slices as well as the tomatoes.
Wash and cut the meat into pieces, mix finely and add 1 vegetable stock cube and already peeled garlic. Heat the oil over high heat in a large pot and fry the pieces of meat without removing them.
Make the gold then add water, and a small pinch of salt then let simmer for 45 minutes at medium broth.
When the pieces of meat are cooked, wash the rice, drain it, then pour it into the cooking broth and cook over low heat for 15 to 20 minutes depending on the quality of the rice.
Pour the rice into a large dish, decorate with the mixture, the tomatoes and the eggs and serve!
