Potu,

My only interest in nairaland was the great information you provided in Balogun's corner. In fact, that was the only real reason I registered in nairaland.

Can you provide an approximate date you will be back there. Moimoi is not a Cameroonian dish.

Thanks. I received it

My heart bleeds for all of you who want me to abandon my corner for another’s. I especially empathize with you Nerrisa, for enduring the tribulations for what I desire; especially where the object of my desires is not your forte.

I am grateful to everyone who posted in my corner, regardless of the content of their postings. However, a handful of those who posted (many of them registering in Nairaland for my sake), deserve honorable mention. Such people include Aisha, Nerrisa (you), Angela, Koolchicco, and Gamine. You all have my contact information outside Nairaland. Please feel free to contact me at your convenience.

The next few days are going to be very hectic for me; as I prepare to receive and entertain an August visitor. After that we will be off to Miami to visit another relative for a week.

Should the expected moi moi turn out palatable; (I will be taking notes religiously during its preparation): I will post the moi moi’s recipe on or before Monday, October 12, 2009. If you do not see a moi moi recipe by D’ day; then you can safely assume that it did not turn out palatable.

At such time that you are able to persuade Mr. Koolchicco to provide me with Sunny Bobo’s contact information; I will gladly do two posts on requests of your choosing in Balogun’s corner. If you happen to run into Naijaking1, please let him know I cherish his thoughts; they were very flattering. The offer remains open indefinitely. You all have my contact information outside Nairaland. I will be glad to hear from you!

Gamine registered on NL for your sake? abi na typo.

You should also thank your friends and foes alike in the spirit of true sportsmanship.

It is not a typo.  My statement was 'Many were registered in NL for my sake,' not all.  Gamine did not register in NL for my sake.  I stand corrected and I apologize if I caused any confusion. 

I also stated categorically that “I am grateful to everyone who posted in my corner, regardless of the content of their postings.” 

If I may ask, are you in the medical field?

Peace and love always.

Potu,

How have you been? I see you can take and give with the best of them (lol). What happened with the Laptop thing? How did Ivey get them; did he break into your house? I am sorry you lost your Laptops and I pray you recover the data some how. Was the data a lot; and were they confidential? Ndo ya; pele.

I tell my husband the same thing every time. Be careful with these people. I don’t trust them further than I can see them.

You are a woman after my heart. Thanks for asking. Jason Ivey is a security guard in the premises. He was hired under the Ex-Con program, where ex-convicts are given a second chance in society. He is also a known cocaine addict who revolves from program to program; while stealing to support his habit. Each of the Laptop had a 2-TB hard drive; and I have not recovered the data until now. He was seen on video tape breaking into my locker: the locker, he was supposed to be guarding. The facility fired him, and before the police could arrest him, he went underground.

Thanks for the support in Nairaland. Believe me I can hold my own. I have been called worst things on the soccer field; and I don’t mean by the opposing team.

My brother,

I was just trying to cook-up a balanced meal. I had no clue you don’t put steak in moi moi! Now I know, and knowing is the first step.

Thanks

‘Shaki,’ isn’t that beef tripe (some type of cow stomach). Long time ago, my father use to eat tripe. We (the children) gather and watch him with awe as he consumed cow intestines (iyak!). Thanks, but no; thanks.

Re: Just Doesn’t Taste Like Moi Moi! by Nobody: 11:03pm On Oct 07, 2009
saki is delicious cheesy

liver can go in moimoi but not saki or steak. Whatever goes in it must be soft with the exception of dried fish, crayfish or prawns. But fresh fish tastes better, imo.

Though of course people can experiment.

no problem! I figured it out later.

In that case, my next adventure will be to try saki.  We use to watch my dad relish it.  No kidding, the thought of eating cow intestines was disgusting.  If it taste nice; I will close my eyes and try it.

Thank you

Oya O! O mashe O! Ashia!

Nerrisa;

It is not Sonny Bono. It is Sunny Bobo. Sonny Bono is Cher’s husband who died in a skiing accident many years ago. So, except Mr. Koolchicco is a medium; he will not know how to contact Sonny Bono (lol).

Sunny Bobo, on the other hand is a popular Nigerian bongo musician. I have already given Potu the information on how to contact Sunny (Pascall) in Nigeria. A Nollywood producer, Mr. P is very good friends with Pascall, and Mr. P is very good friends with my husband.

Shoot Potu an email. He is very busy right now; and may be going down South very soon.

Love

you're welcome.

saki is very tasty, imo. Moreso you only add water when cooking, no need for maggi or any seasoning besides a little salt which is also optional.

Saki is mainly cow stomach. not intestine. In Nigeria I think we braid the intestines before cooking though that might be goat, not cow.

However, if it turns you off, dont eat it unless you're the adventurous type.

Tripe pepper soup is out of this world.

Fhemmmy,

Someone else suggested stripes in moi moi, and Tpia was gracious enough to let Potu know that Stripe is very tasty but does not go into moi moi.  Tpia is simply following up with and pre-empt another forum on how to prepare stripe.

Hopefully, that explains what stripe has to do with moi moi.

Hmm, i just made and am eating the most delicious batch of moimoi ever. i made it with bean flour, added dry pepper and sauce cubes(maggi), salt and a teaspoon of tin tomatoes(for colour). i mean its the most miserly recipe ever but it turned out so well! i used foil paper and it cooked in less than 40 minutes.
Major problem now: how do i preserve? do i put it in the fridge or freezer(in 9ja we cook and eat same day!) Help please!!!
