Rice And Ofada Sauce

Ofada Rice and stew is a Nigerian meal, traditionally made by the people of the Western parts of Nigeria (Yoruba's). It's a special delicacy served in restaurants and it's a great addition for your party menu. One thing people like about the ofada sauce is it texture, spice and assorted meat.

The Ofada rice could be a bit hard to cook and some people do not like the smell so they substitute the Ofada rice with plain white rice. So you see people taking white rice with Ofada sauce mostly. The Ofada sauce is a special traditional sauce because it's not usually a everyday sauce made at home so people go crazy to have a taste when they come across it.
