    I love ekuru soo much, I woke up this morning and began craving it, I thought to myself where will I get this one now????
    And then a good idea pooped into my head, it said you have beans at home why not go on CZcams and look up the recipe, and as a sisi yemmie follower I knew it was already a don deal. Soo here I am ooo😂

    If you don't have a food processor like me, you can blend and use a hand or stand mixer to whip it up until it's double in size and light and fluffy

    But I don't do tomatoes in the sauces sha. In fact tomatoes is a NO NO for me. Aside that, everything other thing is perfecto👌👌👌👌👌
    Sisi Yemmie thank you but do you know can try some vegetables(ugu, green or any of your choice) in the sauce. Another thing is try adding sliced or chopped onions just before taking it off the heat then cover and leave to simmer for a few minutes. That's the boom. Hmm it's heavenly.
