Preparation

Step 1

Make the West African seasoning: Add all the ingredients to a food processor and pulse until the mixture is fully pureed. Scrape down the sides and process again. Repeat until the mixture is smooth. Transfer to a container and set aside.

Step 2

Heat the oil in a large saute pan over medium heat. Sauté the onions and garlic and salt until translucent, 3-4 minutes and add sugar, caramelizing until soft and light brown, 5-7 minutes.

Step 3

Add the lemon juice, horseradish, West African seasoning, stock and bouillon cube and whisk, cooking until it emulsifies, around 5 minutes.

Step 4

Add the kneidlach to the sauce and gently warm for 10-15 minutes. Serve hot.
