Black Pepper Sauce
This is my quick black pepper sauce recipe.
Yes, it’s similar to Agoyin sauce but I didn’t want to call it that before the “authenticity police” will come for me 😅
So back story, the last time I made Agoyin sauce, IT WAS BAD. I was super busy and mistakenly burnt the onions 😅 but because of the plenty tears shed from onions cutting, I told myself “nothing spoil”, took out most of the burnt onions and continued cooking
When I was done, the thing tasted like 200 years of disappointment & heartache. The bitterness was worse than the combination of bitterleaf & Nigerian government performance 😫
So I set out to create a less stressful Agoyin recipe & here we are. I added tomato paste to cut through the heat, feel free to leave it out. I didn’t use palm oil but feel free to use that for a more authentic taste
It’s sooooo simple & soo good!

- 4 large red onions – blended
- ½ cup tomato paste
- ½ cup chili flakes
- 1 cup crayfish powder

Directions
