Ingredients for the tomatoes sauce

1. 10 large fresh tomatoes (1kg)
2. 11 bells of fresh pepper (300g)

4. Two seasoning cubes (I used Maggi)
5. Vegetable oil (250ml)
6. Salt to taste
7. 3 big fresh eggs
   

Method

Step 1: I made sure I prepared all of the ingredients I would be using. I sliced my tomatoes and onion into small pieces, grounded the pepper and whisked the eggs.

My prepared ingredients.

Step 2: I put my pot on fire, added the vegetable oil and allowed it to heat up. I then added the tomatoes, onion and pepper and allowed it to cook for about 15mins (I usually allow my tomatoes to cook properly because I don't like the sour taste). Thereafter, I add the seasoning cubes and salt and let it cook for about 4mins.

Step 3: After I was sure it was cooked to my taste, I added the already whisked egg and stirred until the eggs began to form balls in the sauce. I then let it boil for another 2mins before letting the pot down.

The tomatoes sauce isn't eaten alone, you'll need something to go with it like rice, beans, yam, plantain etc. For me, I used rice and I'll just tell you how I cooked my rice.
