While waiting for your meat to cook, peal your onions, wash and slice it into your desired shape. In a bowl, add your tomato paste, add a little water and mix together. I love adding water to my tomato paste before frying. Now, you can check your pot of meat or give it more time.

Get a clean pot, set it on fire and allow the water to dry. Add palm-oil into the pot, allow to hit up a little then add the onions and tomatoes. Stir immediately, add other cooking agents, add salt to taste. Finally, add water and adjust for taste. Cover the pot and allow it to boil.
