10-12 hours? ๐Ÿฅบ
That means one has to begin the cooking the day before, and on a coal pot too.
Usually coked on firewood in iron-cast pot and sometimes iron nail placed in d pot under d corn.
A pressure pot can cook it faster these days, though.

That's Egboo ( cooked mashed corn) and Ewan ( beans ) with sauce and of course proteins

It takes almost 10 hours to prepare the Egboo ( marshed corn) but very delicious

When we were kids, we also ate it with ororo ( groundnut oil)

Tasty
Or coconut oil

I've come across this dish (the white stuff) a few times, but I don't know what it's called or what it's made from.
What I do know is that it is a dish from the Southwest region of Nigeria.

I like delicacies that require time and effort to cook.
It makes them special, as you wouldn't want to cook them frequently.

This is called Egbo and Ewa
The Egbo is made of Peeled dried corn which is cooked normally like you are cooking rice but cook unti its a little bit mashed NOTE: It takes more time to cook.

Ewa is beans which could be mashed or not, In most places in Yoruba land its always served together,

Yes. Like eating rice and beans kinda with sauce.
It's actually the beans and the sauce that makes it interesting to eat.
