Moi moi is made from beans, but okpa is made from a different seed in the family of beans. The okpa is very common in the East up till Benue and Abuja.. I had well prepared ones in Enugu.

Ofe Onugbu is a popular soup of Igbo tribe of Eastern Nigeria. although Ofe Onugbu cut across the entire Igbo land, it is more peculiar to the Igbo people of Anambra and Enugu State. Onugbu is the Igbo word for Bitter-leaf, although the name of the soup is bitter leaf soup, the soup itself is not bitter at all because the leaf must be thoroughly washed to get rid of the bitterness before it is used.

Ofe Nsala is a very mouth-watering white soup indigenous to the people of Eastern and Riverline areas of Nigeria. ofe nsala is very a tasty and quite easy to make, ofe nsala is mainly prepared for nursing mothers although its open to every one, this delicacy is traditionally made without the use of palm oil as compared to other Igbo soups that require red palm oil as one of its main ingredients. The total absence of the palm oil is what makes this dish so appealing to new mothers.

Ofe Okazi is an Igbo soup made from the okazi leave and ugu . This delicious meal can be prepared in different ways depending on the state, while some prefer to use both ugu leave and okazi leave in preparing the soup, some prefer to use just the okazi leave. which ever way the okazi soup is prepared it can not be called okazi if the okazi leave is not used in the preparation. okazi is prepared with assorted fish, meat, spices and a soup thickener which can be either ofor, achi or ede.

It's not more expensive than others. I don't know why people say so. Is it because one musician said that and we simply get along with it?
