I have to praise we Nigerians for our creativity. The West says, “When life serves you lemons, you make lemonade”. Down here we say, “When life serves you garden eggs, you make garden egg sauce.” One of the best accompaniments to boiled yam or white rice has to be garden egg sauce. And you know what’s even better? Garden eggs are relatively cheap to buy and they are so nutritious. Personally, I am not a huge fan of garden eggs but make it into a sauce and I would be salivating as you also should, once you try out this recipe.

Ingredients
Garden eggs- 6 large
Bell pepper (tatashe)- 2 medium
Onion- I medium
Tomatoes- 3-4 medium
Fresh small pepper- 3-4 pieces
Vegetable oil or palm oil- 2-3 tablespoons
Seasoning- 2 cubes
Salt- to taste
Ground Crayfish- 1 teaspoon
Deboned Smoked fish- 1
Steps
• Boil garden eggs for at least 5 minutes then gently peel the outer coat. Chop or mash as you wish.
• Chop the bell peppers, small peppers, tomatoes and onions the set aside.
• Heat up the oil of your choice and add all chopped ingredients except the garden eggs. Stir-fry for 5 minutes.
• Add the crayfish, seasoning cubes and salt. Taste to ensure the taste suits you.
• Pour the garden eggs and fish and stir properly. If the sauce is too dry for your liking add some water or meat stock if you have any.
• Allow to simmer for about 3 minutes and your garden eggs sauce is ready to be served with white rice, boiled potatoes/yam or as a side sauce in your jollof rice. Hmmm…. Delicious!
