EWA AGANYI Is a Yoruba dish commonly eaten in Nigeria, Togo and Benin. It is also a popular street food and a good source of protein. This delicacy came to Nigeria through the influence of the Agoyin People from Cotonou, that settled in Lagos and was gladly accepted by Nigerians. This was one of the foods I could eat at any time (in excess), throughout my three pregnancies, apart from noodles. My kiddos came out loving it and it never lasted the next day, whenever they requested it. Yum! INGREDIENTS: For the Beans: - 500g - 600g Beans - 6-10 Cups Water - 3 or more onions (optional) salt to taste For the Sauce - 3/4 Cup Chili Dried - 2 Red Bell Pepper Dried - 1 or more Medium Onion, sliced - 1 Tsp Ginger - 2 Tsp Cray Fish - 2 Seasoning Cubes - 1 Cup Palm Oil - Salt to taste METHOD: For the beans: 1 - Rinse and drain the beans a couple of times in cold water. Pour the beans in a stockpot, add the water and cook till it becomes very tender – about 2 to 2 ½ hours. Use a Potato Masher or wooden spoon to mash the Beans to your preference. For the Sauce/Stew: 1 - Add the dried Chilies and bell peppers in cold water overnight or pour hot boiling water over them for about 2 hours. Blend the rehydrated Peppers with the onions, ginger, with minimal water and set aside. Preheat the Palm oil over a medium heat, until the oil is very hot but not bleached. 2 - Add the sliced onion and let it cook for a few minutes, till it is browned and not burnt. Stir in the blended peppers and cook for about 10 minutes 3 - Add the seasoning cubes, crayfish, and salt to taste. Leave it to cook for a few minutes; till the peppers have changed from bright red to dark red. If the colour is still bright red, cook for additional time. Serve the Sauce over the Ewa Aganyin or eat with your Agege Bread, plantain, boiled yam, etc. Enjoy! TIPS: I usually soak my beans in cold water overnight, to avoid bloating, heart burn and stomach discomfort, then bring it to the boil, rinse and repeat the

Pat it down into a round shape, about 4cm deep. Take a 5cm cutter, dip it into some flour and plunge into the dough, then repeat until you have four scones. Press what is left of the dough back into a round shape to cut out another four. 3- Brush the tops with the beaten egg, then carefully arrange on the hot baking tray.
