Lord knows I love fried plantain so much.
Not only do I love eating plantains (I eat it a lot, by the way), I also love taking beautiful pictures of them.
For that, I created this thread gallery specially for plantains, so that I can exhibit the pictures I take.
So, for posterity sake, I will be flooding this space with beautiful pictures upon pictures of delicious looking fried plantains (in different forms) I eat, with or without accompaniment.
Basically, I just want to leave my dodo imprints everywhere shaa.

Oh! And, judging by what I see on Instagram, I take some of the best looking plantain pictures...if I do say so myself.
That's right!

By the way, Afrolems once started her food blogging journey on nairaland, and now she's quite big and no longer active (on this forum), but she left her mark here, and I want to do the same - just in case.
And, she's a big fan of plantain too.

So, here we go!

Soft and delicious... u use red oil or groundnut...

You have done well dear

Merry New year in advance

Oya guys ... drop ur acc

beelon1020:
OP sorry about this ordeal.. this is very condemnable act...
however when Tinubu proposed to recruit 55,000 army, people are mocking him,.. will you now agreed with me that with the heavy presence of military personnel nation wide, the kidnapping issues will be a thing of the past?
Food for thought!

Solid point... To be honest.. Tinubu get lot of sense...

I'm not voting for anyhow but... truly the man too get sense ... but his health is the major challenge confusing people if his fit enough

NumeroUno7:
Hello sir... I have always nursed the intention of migrating to the USA but the visa lottery ban on Nigeria since 2014 has been tough to take.
I spoke with a friend in Liberia about the possibility of coming there to get a Liberian passport so as to help me migrate from Liberia to USA and this friend told me a lot which showed its accessible as long as I have money to spend (5kusd) at least for birth certificate, passport, immigration processing and my accommodation/feeding in Liberia till everything is sorted out.
My question: is this true or am I on the verge of been scammed?

It doesn't matter if the process is real or scam...

A Liberia passport holder will have to apply for a US visa and get approval..before they can be admitted into the US...

I will advice you to tour around the free countries on Nigerian passport so as to give you some edge while applying...

Goodluck

I have gained some insights into different societies and cultures, by traveling far and wide. Not as a weekend tourist, but spending extended time in those places, and living an everyday life. Some of that information/experience might be useful to someone here.

The main point of this AMAA is mostly to answer questions of curiosity. Just random things you wonder about more obscure and less popular places (which I prefer to visit). I'm calling it "Ask Me Almost Anything," because I will not be answering certain questions.

Some questions I can't answer:

1. Questions about visa processes: I simply don't know, as I travel visa-free on a US passport, in almost all cases.

2. Questions about "hustling" as a documented or undocumented resident.

I have a web-based business in the US. So I work remotely, wherever I am.


A few things to note:

1. When I say "lived in a country," I don't mean permanently. I use that for countries I spend at least 1 month. I typically spend anywhere from 1- 3 months per country. In a few cases, I've stayed as long as 6, 10 and 12 months in some countries.

2. I travel on a US passport. I keep renewing my Naija passport each time it expires, but I never actually use it. Latest one I got in New York expired some months ago. I only used it once, in visiting Naija.

3. I am less interested in visiting "first world countries," as I find them boring. So most of my travels are to developing countries, but mostly those I still have access to solid accommodation and amenities. I have a business to run, so I can't be without reliable internet.

I find these countries more diverse in culture and lifestyle. First world countries are too structured and predictable.

4. I don't stay in hotels. I rent full Airbnb apartments, as I typically stay in a place for a few months and prefer to feel at home. I only stay in a hotel, if I need to, for 1-2 days while in transit, or something.

5. I've been learning Spanish for a long time, and speak decent enough conversational Spanish, and basic Portuguese.

Mutton, no?

Both mutton and chicken are healthy options...

Nearly $157,000

Luckysbab:
One of the few Diasporans not tired of chicken yet, it appears.

Chicken will continues to gain popularity here because of its relevance on a “healthy” menu. Chicken is high in protein and low in calories, fat and cholesterol. It has essential vitamins like iron, zinc and vitamin B....

So more chicken, less beef
