Amala and ewedu with gbegiri on point

radiokilla:
when and how did you prepare this

Aminat508:


Just this afternoon.


Amala,

Put the quantity of water you want to use in a pot, allow it to boil, use a small bowl to take out some boiled water, u might still need it in case your amala turns out too hard. while still on fire,then start adding the powdered elubo gradually, u can use one of your clean fingers to feel it while still on fire to be sure its neither too soft nor too hard, if its too soft you can add more elubo, and if too hard add your r reserved hot water. leave it on fire for some minutes , like 2 to 4mins, then bring it down from fire.

Gbegiri :

Ingredients

cup Honey beans
• 1 cooking spoon palm oil
• 3 Ata Rodo"Scotch bonnet/Habanero Pepper"(You can also use cayenne pepper) - Ground
• 1 tsp. Akaun "Ground Potash"- Optional (to soften the beans)
• Iru "Locust beans" - Optional
• 1 Seasoning cube
• Salt to taste


Procedure

Place the beans in a bowl and wash with your hands to remove the skin.

In a medium sized pot, cook the peeled beans in water with potash till soft. The beans can be cooked without potash although it will take longer time but it's definitely healthier. Using the ijabe broom, mash the beans in the pot (make sure there's water in it) just like it's done when making ewedu. Alternatively, you can use the blender for this. Simply leave the beans to cool down a little before placing in a blender and grinding till smooth.

Once you've gotten a smooth paste either from the blender/broom, place back on low heat, add the seasoning cube, ground pepper, palm oil, salt to taste and then stir. Gbegiri soup is a slightly watery soup so you'd have to add some more water to loosen it up and reduce the thickness.

In a small pot, add the water and potash and leave to heat up. Once the water starts to boil, add the ewedu leaves and leave to cook for about 7 minutes. Turn off the burner and mash with the broom. Alternatively if you don't have the broom, leave the boiled ewedu to cool a little then pour it into a blender and blend.

Pour the ewedu back into the pot and turn the burner to the lowest. Add the salt, and locust beans. leave it to simmer for 3-5 minutes. Ready

You may not like and ever eat it but its terribly rude to be doing God forbid on another person's food - terribly rude! Someone from another culture may say the same thing for your best food and I bet you'll feel bad. Just try to control yourself...

banmee:


I honestly don't know what koreans are doing on this thread.
