How to serve chicken cumin stew.

Serve with either

• A French stick, Tiger rolls or rice
• or ideally Cassava bread (gluten free bread that tastes a bit like white bread)
• Baton de Manioc (also called Chikwangue or cassava bread) – gluten free bread that tastes a bit like white bread.
• Or Fufu – similar to cassava but with a slightly sour taste

Cassava bread

In places like the Centra African Republic this recipe is often served with Cassava bread or Fufu. Neither of which you can buy in major shops. However Cassava flour is available from Amazon if you would like to make your own bread.

Lastly it is often enjoyed with a glass of banana wine or palm wine

A few tips for making chicken stew

Fresh tomatoes are great for making stews, and will add extra flavour.

Please note the original recipe is slightly bland, add more cayenne pepper if you prefer it a bit spicier.

The country recipe challenge.

I originally found this recipe when researching recipes in the Central African Republic and tastes lovely.

The beauty of food from the Central African Republic is that many meals use locally grown ingredients, such as cassava (see below), rice, squash, spinach, pumpkins and plantains. Similarly many meals include fish, chicken and game.

This recipe is part of my country recipe challenge, where I am trying to find 1 recipe from each country in the world.
