Comments from Jim;


"A traditional African dish, from Sierra Leone, in West Africa. Originally made with monkey meat, but monkey is difficult to acquire in the U.S., so beef will suffice. Best when served spicy hot.


This dish isn't for everyone. It has kind of an unappetizing appearance, and you have to like peanut butter, but it really IS good. Also very filling, and has probably a GAZILLION calories and cholesterol."
