Kitchen tip: 1,If you happen to be using tender minced  meat, you do not necessarily need to boil the fried meat, you can skip this step. I did this just to be sure the meat cooks through as the beef in Nigeria is quite tough.

2, I used canned coconut milk in this dish. You can get this readily in most supermarkets.
