Mashed beans (Ewa agoyin) with pepper sauce

in #recipes7 years ago

Hello steemians,
I decided to divert a little from my usual posts on fashion, and motivation. I'll be sharing one of my favorite Nigerian dishes mashed beans popularly called "Ewa agoyin". This dish is very popular in the western part of Nigeria, and can be eaten with bread, dodo(plantain), or yam.
