Bell Pepper & Habanero Offal Stew

What it is

This vibrant red stew is rich in palm oil and distinct from general 'pepper stew' by its specific emphasis on the blend of bell and habanero peppers.
Key ingredients
Bell peppers (red), habanero peppers, onions, palm oil, assorted offal (e.g., shaki, intestine, liver), stock cubes, salt, ginger, garlic.
How to make it keto
