Ofe Nsala is called white soup because it uses no palm oil at all. The body comes from pounded yam thickening the stock, and the character comes from a generous hand with pepper and the aromatic leaves that traditionally finish it, uziza and utazi.
Seafood suits this soup particularly well, since nothing heavy is competing with it. The result is light on the eye but forward on flavour, with a clear peppery heat. Serve it with pounded yam, eba or semo. Prices are in RWF.
