African Sweet Potato Stew
My sister and my mother raved about this. I happened to be at my mother's up in the Twin Cities over Memorial Day. My mother sent some of this recipe home with me. I gave some to a friend home in Chicago before trying it. My friend called me and asked for the recipe. I tried it. It is good. ALSO Easy to make. I like the taste and the texture! I really don't know how "African" it is, it might be African like how French - French Toast is.
