About Yam and stew
Yam and Stew is a vibrant dish rooted in West African cuisine, combining the natural sweetness of boiled or roasted yam with a deeply-flavored tomato-based stew. The yam is typically peeled, sliced, and cooked until tender, while the stew features a rich medley of ingredients like tomatoes, onions, bell peppers, garlic, and a protein such as chicken, fish, shrimp, or beef. Often spiced with chili and seasonings, the dish offers a satisfyingly bold taste. Yams are a complex carbohydrate, high in fiber, potassium, and vitamin C, making them a great energy source. The tomato stew contributes antioxidants like lycopene, while proteins provide essential amino acids. However, care should be taken with added oils and frying methods, which can increase calorie content. Yam and Stew is both wholesome and flavorful, making it a cherished dish in African households worldwide.
