Follow the site that tpia gave, it has the recipe.

I still can't believe you people have never heard of EKURU. oga o

minute:


Eko and Aroo(thats another kind of Ekuru) with atadindin.


Yes! if you want the "alaro" type of ekuru,
you only need to add  little potash (kaun) after blending the beans.
Nevertheless, that will makes the colour darker and the texture a little bit harder.

For the benefit of "assors" who never know about ekuru
and also to fulfil my promise to Ebony,

I hereby present some pictures that describes how and what of this wonderful delicacy- Ekuru.
Bon-appetit! kiss

Re: How And What Do You Use To Eat Ekuru? by detruth: 2:13pm On Dec 23, 2008
then we go to the wrapping stage (you can also use polythene bags instead of leaves)

Re: How And What Do You Use To Eat Ekuru? by detruth: 2:24pm On Dec 23, 2008
See the outcome! grin

Re: How And What Do You Use To Eat Ekuru? by detruth: 2:49pm On Dec 23, 2008
talking about the ingredients to prepare the pepper stew, you have pepper, onions, palm oil, crayfish, dried fish, etc.

is ekuru another form of moin moin?
Re: How And What Do You Use To Eat Ekuru? by detruth: 3:11pm On Dec 23, 2008
tkb417:

is ekuru another form of moin moin?

Except with similarities in the way of wrapping and steaming, ekuru is a little bit different
Unilike moinmoin, nothing is added to ekuru before blending, not even salt.

In addition, moinmoin does not require vigirous stiring like ekuru.
Ekuru needed to be stired until it is light so as to facilitate the mashing
Re: How And What Do You Use To Eat Ekuru? by tkb417(m): 3:15pm On Dec 23, 2008
chei!!!
this ur last pic looks yummy o
will they sell ekuru in Ogun state? i think its predominantly in ekiti state just like ikokore is to Ijebus
abi no be so?
Re: How And What Do You Use To Eat Ekuru? by detruth: 3:18pm On Dec 23, 2008
Ekuru is a yoruba food. Found in every part of yorubaland.
Re: How And What Do You Use To Eat Ekuru? by tkb417(m): 3:22pm On Dec 23, 2008
thts hard to believe tho cos a meal like ikokore cannot be found in ekiti im sure
nyways, im hoping to test this soon

do u know shapala? my grandma made it for me during easter. corn mean or sumfn. superbly yummy grin grin grin
Re: How And What Do You Use To Eat Ekuru? by detruth: 3:28pm On Dec 23, 2008
I agree with you that Ikokore is a typical ijebu food. But ekuru is quite general to yorubas.

sapala or abari is made like moinmoin with fresh corn grains.
Its style is not different from moinmoin except bean exchanged for corn.
Am I right? grin
