Directions
Congo Chicken Moambe (Stew), Adapted from Bill Odarty’s cookbook called A Sahara of African Cooking I found this in Down Jersey Cooking submitted by Joyce Williams who has been researching her African-American roots She said that when she prepared this recipe and served it at a church supper, it was so good, she got a marriage proposal and his wife was standing right next to him! Moambe means stew in central Africa , I made this moambe recipe for a young woman from Congo, and she said it was perfect (although, she called it something different) Didn’t change a thing and it was delicious I also attempted to make fufu to go with the dish, and although it was close, it wasn’t exact , I loved this recipe! I’ve made it four times now, and my family loves it as well Since I have a pepper allergy, I omitted the spicy stuff, but I put out a bottle of sriracha sauce for those inclined I don’t know that it’s necessary to put it in the oven It’s delicious without that step I’ve never bothered You might consider adding some spinach or kale toward the end
