Been following this thread for over three years now and never posted. This morning I tried my baby's food (Tom/Turn brown) with beans porridge and thought I should share pictures with the people who have been the cause of my salivation for years now.

I made the Tombrown powder myself and it contains Sorghum, Maize, Soyabeans, groundnut and dates fruit. It is the elder brother of pap

Something to soften the belly.

You are lucky it is as you grew older - my stomach never agrees with very many foods.

I'll give details based on kg, you can use whatever measurement you want applying the same calculation.

Ingredients
500g maize
500g sorghum/guinea corn
500g soya beans
200g groundnut
Clean and Very dry Dates fruit as preferred or it can be omitted entirely.

Method
1.Pick out all the dirt from the grains and nuts and set them aside.

2.open your dates fruit, take out the seeds and 'cobwebs'

3.in a clean dry pot, fry your dirt free grains (maize and sorghum) until they turn light brown and start popping.

4. Fry your groundnut for about 3 minutes on low heat.

5. Fry your soya beans till the shell starts to come off.

6.when the soyabeans cools, pound to remove the chaff or take it to a mill for them to break the beans.

7. Sift the soyabeans till it's chaff free.

8. Mix all your grains and nuts together and take them to a dry mill to be grinded to smooth powder. I was lucky enough to get a very good place where they have a separate engine for 'baby food'.

N.B - I used a cloth sieve to for the power to get an extremely smooth consistency. You can omit this step anyway.

Wow, thanks very much for the detailed explanation. Although it does seem long but I guess it's worth it. Would give it a short hopefully soon.

Unpopular but personal opinion: I think Banga soup is overrated . I’ve had it different times at different places , prepared by different people and I still can’t get around the hype . I’ve had it with rice , with Eba and yet I just find it to be basic ; I don’t rate it higher than normal stew sef.

Recently I’ve grown fond of Afang soup and o’boi that’s one good soup when taken with pounded yam and cold water , u will forget the problems of this world for hours.

Lol.....Banga soup is always a banger! Who prepped the ones you ate? An indigenous Deltan or......? What protein was used? Note, Ofe akwu is not our Delta Banga o. We use our native spices (obenetete, obrunbebe stick, ataiko and the likes) to prep Banga soup. Most Banga soups prepare in the city don't use these spices making it Ofe Akwu and not Banga soup

They are costly because of exchange

In naija, there is this pots that sisi yemi use. Have forgotten the name but it's the preferred dutch oven those lekki people use. Produced in South Africa.
(That woman made money but the usual naija show-off happened. She invested in le creuseut and co later but I don't know who she was trying to impress when ordinary Nigerians who watch her show don't care about those kind of things. Stopped watching her when the show off became too much. She later confessed she saved nothing)

In all I still believe that the best pot to invest in is quality stainless aluminium pots. Even wok. Easier to wash, use as you want. Doesnt demand for seperate utensils when cooking. And yeah the most expensive from well known companies if one want to go for them but whether expensive or cheap, still the best

Have you watched the video of "Pot of flavour" on YouTube? She did a market video on sales/purchase of fairly used kitchen utensils at Alaba market. Mehn, these overhyped pots are super super cheap in that market! I wish I was in Lagos, I'd have bought enough kitchen utensils for myself

Yes, it is sweet. I know some days are like that. But gather strength and cook. Homemade meals are the best. The Lord is our strength. Enjoy your weekend.
