pls amaka can u help me.my oga likes snail but i dont kno how 2 prepare it.can anyone help ith how to prepare snails.thanks

Sauteed pepper snails

20 fresh snails
4 Sweet Peppers (green & red combination works well)
2 Ata Rodo ( Habanero- Optional, if you dont like spicy food you can leave out)
6 Limes/ Lemons
2 medium Tomatoes
oil for frying

To prepare the snail:
Crack the shells , remove the snail meat and clean with lime ( Rub with plenty of lime till all the slime is off).
Place in bowl and pour in enough water to cover the snail to wash off the remaining lime and slime.
Cut snails into 2 (if large or leave whole)
Pour prepared snail into colander, drain and rinse under cold water.
Set aside.

Chop up the onion, peppers and tomatoes ( not too finely)

Set aside

Preparation:
Set a pan on the fire with enough oil to cover the bottom of the pan.
Add snails (in batches so as not to overcrowd the pan, or else they will start to cook adn not fry)
Fry over medium to low heat, turning regularly to make sure they are well fried.
(keep your heat low to medium, otherwise the snails will become tough and rubbery)
Added chopped ingredients and fry for another +/- 5 mins.
Scoop out of pan and drain on kitchen towel.

Serve as snack with drinks.

Hi amaka, couldn't send you an email- no addy. Hope you see this and respond soon,
I need to make stew, just basic stew for rice/spagetti or a nice sauce that can keep for up to 2 weeks and still be tasty.
Please gimme the recipe for nigerian stew or any nice sauce (without too much mede mede inside) lol.
Thanks.
