This Efo Riro is like "Mount Zion that can not be moved"

I saw this post on ounjealadun.com and couldn't resist the sight. Omo imagine falling down from this mountain or should i say upstairs. Whatever, the most important stuff is that you can decide to fall from this mountain with the help of Eba, Fufu, Amala or Semo which ever one that best suite you. Please do justice to this delicacy.



Recipe
1. Efo Tete (1 bowl rinsed and shredded, bowl in this case is a 3 litre bowl)
2. Coarsely blended pepper mix containing 10 Atarodo 1 Tatashe  1 Tomatoes
3. 1 large Onion chopped
4. 1 Smoked Sardine (deboned)
5. 1 tbsp Iru (locust beans)
6. 1 tbsp Powdered Crayfish
7. 1 soft curly Ponmo (chopped)
8. 1/4 cup Vegetable oil.
9. Salt

Heat up vegetable oil and add Iru and chopped Onions, as it starts to fry, it would gives off a pleasant  fragrance, now add the ponmo, allow the ponmo to fry slighty, then add the pepper. *DO NOT COVER THE POT. Covering the pot would trap the stem and make the pepper soft and stew and we don’t want that, the intention here is to fry the pepper.
Season with salt, bouillon cubes, powdered crayfish 
Allow pepper to fry, you’d know it is ready when all the water is completely reduced and you can see the oil begin to fry the pepper, now add the deboned flaked sardine. Stir it into the stew with a ladle.
Now add your rinsed, and shredded vegetable.  Stir the pot carefully from the bottom to top, till the pepper is well mixed with the vegetable.
Turn the heat down and allow vegetables to cook for about 5 mins, because you want to retain the brilliant green colour and some crunch. Do not cover still.
Once ready, turn off heat and wait about 10 minutes before you put a lid on your pot.
Pair with any other food you like.
