Happy Mother’s Day readers!
Hope you all had a lovely day with your mums and showered them with plenty love.
Today’s post, I was lazy this weekend and went for a quick easy dish, Palm Kernel Sauce. Also called “Palm
butter Sauce” or in krio “Banga soup” The palm kernel paste/butter is made from
the flesh of the palm kernel fruit. The paste/butter can be cooked into a sauce
that you can have with rice. You can cook it with any meat of your choice or
fish if you are a vegetarian. See below
for steps on how to prepare this dish. Aprons On!
