Hi everyone, I am cooking up a concoction once again. I have everything I need for the above soup. Thing is how do I thicken it? and also, can i put one ogiri into it or will that ruin it? doi slice up the snails or leave them whole. Waiting in anticipation, |
Re: Edikaikong by HRhotness(f): 12:00am On Nov 28, 2008 |
use d minimum amount of water possible. . . for boiling d meat and things, d water frm d veges shd be enough to cook itself, everything shd be chopped up, it presents nicer that way what is ogiri? |
Re: Edikaikong by Leilah(f): 12:05am On Nov 28, 2008 |
you know that seasoning that smells very strong? I think its made from fermented melon seeds. Can I put the snails in whole like at the last minute? |
Re: Edikaikong by ikamefa(f): 12:08am On Nov 28, 2008 |

Thats exactly how mine looks but the snails are very hard. Im not sure why this is, Not sure if its cos I overcooked them or undercooked them |

Edikan ikong if prepared in the right way with all the right ingredients is a dish to die for |
Re: Edikaikong by corrall(f): 2:29pm On Jul 02, 2009 |
u guys, sorry to bust your bubble, but that picture up there doesnt even come close to what edikang ikong looks like. whatever u do, after chopping the ugu, spray some salt on it and squeeze very well, removes loads of the water from the leaves. that way the soup will be thick, with the water from the waterleaves and meat stock, and enough palmoil. trust me, i am from calabar. 2 Likes |

corrall: Eyeneka, i was wondering the same thing. Anyway, people have their own remixes. Affang and Editan are the best soups ever though. |

I don't know how to cook it, but edikan - ekong (stirr fried leaves) use to be my favorite dish. I have no clue what that picture is! Anyway, I have been out of Nigeria for many years, and dishes like that only exist in my dreams. Yesterday, I tried my hands on moi moi -- Needless to say, I ended up in Four Season's Hotel, to congratulate my failed effort. |
