rhymz: ofe Owerri is like oha soup but instead, the thickner is cocoa yam and the leave is Okazi leave. . Also, it is usually not as thick as your typical Oha soup, achara soup, am not sure how it is prepared though but it is very different from Oha soup or ofe owerri soup.u sound like u savvy cooking, if so, then u'll make a good... |

My late grandmother(from Rivers State) told me this: Coconut rice was staple with the igbos during the war. They had lots of coconut trees and rice and salt and pepper. so one day, someone decided to cook rice differently for the starving children and people and coconut was used. Now, if coconut rice was cooked way before the Biafran war in some other country, I do not know but all my life I've come to believe that it started with the igbo people during the war. Moi moi: It might be a Yoruba dish and again it might not be. All my life, all the moi moi that i've eaten came from the Igbo's. I've eaten something prepared by the Yoruba's that looks like moi moi but isn't moi moi. This one is softer and more peppery and sticks to the teeth. Is Agidi an igbo food? Ofe N'sala is igbo N'ri oka is igbo Ofe Onugbu is igbo Ngwogwo is igbo (but i won't be caught dead eating it...  isn't this intestines of a goat or cow?) |

pslm23: My late grandmother(from Rivers State) told me this: I think you are wrong ma. Coconut rice originated from thailand. http://www.shesimmers.com/2009/03/mango-and-sweet-coconut-sticky-rice.html Moi-moi orginated from Oyo aka Yoruba in fact the Moi moi was made with eko. here is an account of brazilians etc in the 1800 giving account on how they made moi-moi of which no other country had no influence except the yorubas http://books.google.co.uk/books?id=JTBSpuCkl9AC&pg=PA197&dq=moi+moi+food+origin&hl=en&sa=X&ei=nhz3T73kD6eH0AXjhpmlBw&ved=0CDYQ6AEwAQ#v=onepage&q=moi%20moi%20food%20origin&f=false is Agadi (uncooked corn starch) not the same as Akamu/Ogi of which are yoruba words ? Correct me if I am wrong |

hmmmm... so coconut rice is thai food? Anyway sha, in my head it is Igbo food and it feels better thinking it's of Nigerian origin I'm still torn about the origin of moi moi! Either way, it is a delicious meal but hard to prepare. The thought of skin washing alone will make someone like me abandon the idea of making akara or moi moi |
| Re: Name Any Nigerian Dish And The Tribe It's Associated With by aljharem(m): 10:41am On Jul 09, 2012 |
^^^^^^ No wahala Also, my mistake Akamu is actually an Igbo word for Ogi. Just spoke to my Igbo friends in an argument |
