A staple condiment in Washington, DC, Mumbo sauce is a bright orange sauce that's famous for its sweet, spicy, and savoury flavour. It's extremely versatile and used on everything from chicken wings to fried rice.

This is my take on the classic recipe. I love it poured over chicken tenders and fries. Try it tonight - you won't regret it.
