i have to try dis. but im lost which is scotch bonnet pepper? and is bell pepper ur regular tatashi (the local parlance in Nig)? also curious, y dont use curry or thyme?
Ugochi, scotch bonnet is rodo and bell pepper is tatashe. The sizes and spicyness is different to Nija ones so I advise you blend combinations of pepper how u would normally. The recipe requires 800ml of blended pepper. It’s a personal preference that I don’t use curry and thyme for most of my home cooked meals. I use for party cookings though????
Hmmmm….quite appealing! Would give it a try. Well done
Thank you! Do give it a try and don’t forget to feedack????
