Cooking Steps:

I make use of fresh tomatoes and sachet tomatoes. I first blend the fresh tomatoes and cook them till the water gets dried and keep them aside. As for the meat, I used it, which was already cooked and preserved in the refrigerator.

• Place a pot on medium heat on the fire and pour in a small quantity of vegetable oil, and allow it to heat.

• Put in some quantity of sliced onion and fry to give the stew a sweet aroma. After a minute or so, add in your fresh tomato and fry it until it gets dry

• While frying your fried tomato sauce, add in some seasoning and spices and fry.

• Add ground pepper, and sachet/tin tomato sauce, and fry both.

• Add all seasoning and spices and stir very well.

• Add a small quantity of water, and stir it very well.

• Add water and allow to cook till it get thick before putting your boiled eggs.
