where did you buy that kind bitter bitter leaf? eh Ebony? lol. anyway, my mom sent me dried bitter leaf. i don't buy here. you wouldn't taste the bitter in it.

i was tempted to buy there washed bitter leaf sometime ago. man! that thing really bitter. bad business i threw it away.

@Hauwa
If you have beans, onions, maggi, salt etc. . . .then you can make akara over there.

Puff puff. . . .go to Sam's Club or WalMart to buy flour, yeast, eggs, and sugar

For okro-  Publix or those spanish stores. It seems to me that SA like okros too.

Eba. . . .dnt know where you can get that.

Lol, sisi oloje ke? I take am resemble you

But I think you're right, na b/c I eat them too much jare

look at Pataki, the only first and only post here and he is disliking something.
Jo wake up and smell the lovely cooked Ikokore.

fresh okro ummm, with smoked fish and prawn etc. those are rare so i don't eat okra (no real naija ingre to make it)

okra and bitter leaf? Ebony what are cooking over there?

i just feel like eating fresh Ila with naija beef stew with ata rodo and tatashe
(bell pepper can never take the place of tatashe)

Rotflmao. . . .

Excess garri here, I'd have given you some. Nobody in this house appreciates garri anymore. It's just there  

OMG, I still dnt know wetin you dey call prawn. Sounds like something inedible.  

Go sit down jare. Pepper is Pepper

Aren't they the same thing?

Not when am cooking it.

But when others are cooking it, they seem to add bitter leaf. It's called ogbolo or ojolo. sth like that

check out wikipedia my dear maybe you will get a good idea. do you know crayfish? crayfish is whitish, prawn is the huge one, red in color when dried.
okay let me give a better example. do you go to chinese eatery? ever seen the red shrimp? okay shrimp yeah, same thing. just that naija style it is smoked.

Oh yea, the one that tastes like excess maggi.

Thanks for adding one more to my list.

@post
Prawn

not the same, taste very different, (though they both make soup red). tatashe is more   with nice aroma that bell pepper don't have.

lol well it is because they add lo mein to it

*Hauwa*:

A 40, you know better food so? 


Ebony Silk
I don't know what it's called, but that bitter leaf soup used to substitue efo in egunsi soup. Egusi soup is really nice with slight touch of bitter leaf, very small quantity 

I'm starting to hate akara. what? you eat Akara over there? I like my akara with yaji  but haven't had it in a long time. no time to make it.

Can't stand puffpuff anymore. you chop those things too much o, abeg no tease me no more. you be champion. see as you dey hate them (due to overfeeding on them). long time since i tasted puffy

Eba is getting on my nerves too  man!! lol, haven't had eba for a very long time. maybe the first food i will eat if i leave SA.

Shaki or w/e it's called. Also used in egunsi suop You chop them too much. that's why you don't like them anymore. sisi oloje  

Yes i know good food e.g starch and banga,amala and egusi or veggie soup e.t.c not that foul smelling iru

you know i just need to make you a good Iruish Apon soup with lots of smoked hausa fish, mangala and tinko.

.

amala and ewedu

Yeah . . . Ikokore is the most irritating mixture ever served in a plate!!!!

My mum's Edo (Ishan to be specific), they've got this Banga soup thing . . .it's awful!!!

Gosh! Any real Nigerians here? seems most of the posters prefer junk food like burgers. How can u hate Pounded yam or Amala or Nkowobi? U B oyinbo? Just my 2 kobo though.

Fufu and Semo.

Beans and everything it represents like moi moi, akara etc.

not liking certain Naija foods means liking "burgers"?

Short yellow bus rider.

Aadun (made with maize and palm oil ) I use to and still detest it. My mother used to force us to eat it back in the days.

I eat anything naija. . . . . .lol . . . . except for some hausa foods like that. . . .no food is worse, maybe the way it was cooked sha. . . .

peeps hating on Ikokore. . . . .wetin do una? that is some crackingliky food right ther. . . . . . When cooked right. . . .
