Rice and stew is one of the most common food combinations in Nigeria. With the high cost of tomatoes and peppers in the market, Nigerians have turned to innovative ways to make stew using ingredients such as cucumber, carrot, cabbage, and even watermelon as a substitute for tomatoes. If you do not have an adventurous palate, you may be forced to go without the beloved rice and stew for a while.
