Preparation

3 h 40
  1. Cook the taro in its skin in a pot for about 2 hours.
  2. Peel the taro and pound it while it is still hot. Make sure there are no more lumps by crushing it; the paste should be smooth.
  3. Slightly moisten the paste if you find it a little hard; once the desired consistency is obtained, set aside.
  4. Cook the tripe with salt for about 1 hour and set aside.
  5. Dissolve the yellow-sauce seasonings in a container and set aside.
  6. Liquefy the palm oil by warming it gently, then add the piece of rock salt to the palm oil and pour in half of the warm water. Mix.
  7. Using a bowl, once the emulsion is stabilised, remove the remaining rock salt.
  8. Crumble the 4 stock cubes into the seasoning mixture, add salt and stir.
  9. Stir the seasonings into the yellow sauce, then add the tripe, adjust the seasoning and add the whole chilli.
  10. It's ready. Serve hot, enjoy!
