Sauce aux Crevettes
(Shrimp Sauce) Recipe

Origin: West Africa      Period: Traditional

This is a traditional West African sauce made from dried prawns along with peanuts, tomatoes and onions. Often dried prawns or shrimps are ground to a powder and used as a thickener but here they are a main feature of this stew.

Ingredients:

1 onion, finely chopped
6 okra, finely-chopped
2 tomatoes, chopped and mashed
250ml peanut butter diluted with 120ml hot water
450g dried prawns, rinsed and soaked in warm water
salt, black pepper and cayenne pepper, to taste
4 tbsp oil for frying

Sauce aux Crevettes
(Shrimp Sauce) Preparation:


Method:

Heat the oil in a frying pan and fry the onions for a few minutes until soft and translucent then stir-in the okra and fry for a few minutes more. Add the tomatoes and continue frying for two to three minutes further. Reduce the heat and add the peanut butter, stirring until smooth (add more water if necessary). Finally add the dried prawns and season to taste. Season the stew on low heat for about ten minutes, or until the prawns soften. Serve with yams, Baton de Manioc or FuFu.
