Cameroonian Njangsa Sauce - creamy, delicious stew that goes great with rice!

This Cameroonian Njangsa sauce has so much umami and is easy to make!
The distinctive taste of this stew is derived from njangsa seeds, also known as njangsang or jangsa, readily available in African markets. The rest of the ingredients are pantry staples, making this recipe a breeze to prepare. You can use your choice of fish, or opt for chicken, beef, or pork.
Njangsa stew is great for serving with white rice, yams, or plantains. Enjoy!
