Yea but do they sell the ones 90% of Nigerians in abroad eat? I know Samsclub does but Walmart? Perhaps the ones in Atlanta just don't have it, either way Basmati, really? ***Looking at you funny***

Walmart owns samsclub . They carry mostly the same products.

Work on your taste buds . Basmati is beautiful rice.

Cool

Dyt:
Sure
I use black eyed beans for mine

When I tell people
They hardly believe

Mariangeles:
Brown beans is best for it, especially honey beans.
If don't have any problem with sugar, add a little amount to it. That's what sets it apart from ordinary cooked beans, coupled with the pepper sauce.
It's best eaten with soft bread or fried plantain.

abbey621:
Who the hell buys rice at Walmart? You sure say you be Nigerian sef, abi you are one of those wey dey chop Bismanti or one of those fancy rice...yuck

Yes I love basmati rice. Very very much.

Walmart does sell parboiled rice too in case you’ve never been there. And since Costco is out, they are naturally my next choice because of their big size and likelihood of having supply.

I went to buy rice . Even Walmart is out of rice.
Costco is out of toilet paper and all the stores even online are out of cleaning solutions and sanitizers.
As of today, All major activities closed and schools closed. But healthcare workers must go to work unless they are sick or have symptoms.
All we need is zombies and the apocalypse will be complete.

Dyt:
You like this?

Enter my tummy

Thank you

Even Mari has shared the recipe with me before. I’ll make it soon. Soon..........

Can I make it with brown beans?

Dyt:
Not so hard
Just mash the beans when it's soft

Then the pepper
Fry it with palm oil till it turns **blackish** not burnt cos you won't like the taste

I use oil for mine but still comes out like it's palm oil
And that's not plantain it's fried banana



Btw
They said someone stole pictures
It's aproko that carried me reach here

Mariangeles:
Yum! Yum!! Yum!!!
I love love love rice and beans, especially when cooked together.

Best combo. And it contains all the essential nutrients.

payperpost:
yeah, someone is a waitress, she takes the photos of the meals to be served and post them here also .
I've been watching her closely .

Pray tell us who

I’m feeling this lunch.

If you use a pressure pot to cook your beans, it cooks in less than 20 minutes and doesn’t get sticky. That’s how I like beans for regular stew.

I keep planning to make ewa goin (hope I spelled that right) but liver dey cut me. Never tried it but it looks like something I’d love to eat.

Waitress posting customers’ food?

Nairalanders sha.
Are you sure you want to do this?

Anyway cook and share with us. I just did.

Can you cook?

payperpost:
and the waitress posting customers food pics too , una no dey shame!

pocohantas:
Over work dey worry am. I don’t know how to eat Ogbono alone. Always cook my Ogbono with a lil egusi. Lets say 4:1. Put it oziza for maximum pleasure.

Oh really? Okay

sholay2011:
Never had Caribbean food sha.

It’s really good. Similar to African food

Akposy:
Lemon Meringue Tart

I made this as my class work. I was scared at first but local boy made it. I'm proud of myself

This one pass local boy levels o. You’re going international.

rape. you mean rape

Yea. Typical oyinbo aka American cuisine is not for flavor loving individuals.

Usually not one of my top choices

sholay2011:
My ranking:

Nigerian food
Chinese food
Thai food/Indian food
.
.
.
.
Oyinbo food (except some special cases).

Nnemuka:
It works for me atleast.
cook your egusi separately, fry the ogbono separately and add to the egusi and meat stock. I used onugbu in place of ugu.
Its really nice

Small to test it out. If I like it, I’ll let you know.

If I don’t tell you anything then I probably didn’t like it

Cousin9999:
Do you know how bad Indian hygiene is or how many males put their bodily fluids in the food at their restaurants?

Don't eat at Indian restaurants.

What?

This one didn’t hear what happened to his predecessor

sholay2011:
Madam coco, na only you waka come?

Abeg stay safe and stay away from those tempting Italian restaurants for now. Keep posting from your kitchen.

I haven’t been to an Italian restaurant recently. And that was next on our to-go list since we are sampling whatever piques our interest.

I’ll just stay away from the Italians for now.

I had some Indian few days ago. It was sublime.
Indian food is second only to Nigerian food.
With Chinese in third place.

Maybe it’s because of nurture but Nigerian food has been the winner in my opinion

Nnemuka:
First pic: Ogbono and Egusi mixed together
Second pic: Okro soup

Does this combination work?

I have some ogbono that I’m about to throw away because I don’t like ogbono by itself.

We’ve been doing some kind of mini food festival.
But at this point, it’s back to the kitchen henceforth. (Especially because of corona)
Let me go and clean my pots.

1) burgers and fries with a cocktail.
2) shrimp curry with coconut rice (the yummiest).
3) eggs Benedict with Canadian bacon and hollandaise sauce.
4) char broiled steak on coleslaw.

Instead of countering OP with facts, they resort to name calling and gas lighting.

Davash222:
Coco, he doesn't have any babymama, he's a responsible man.

Ah deflection. Our old friend

Davash222:
He's already treating the girl as his own flesh and blood. He's only being careful to protect the girls.
The father of the boy is alive, isn't it wise for the woman to take the boy to his father??

Would he let his own son be homeless because he steals out of starvation?

Davash222:
Tell me how he's a Jezebel here.

I'm waiting

Oh simple.

He’s not ready to treat the child she had with another man as his own flesh and blood.

Isn’t that the very easy expectation y’all have when it comes to step moms?

OP if not that you guys already have kids together I’d tell to divorce that man. It might be too much for your kids.

However in all honestly (unless he has a change of heart) you’re better honestly of without that man. How you want to achieve that is up to you.

I better be dead and rotten before a man comes between me and my child.

Oh really?

The man is not a jezebel in this case?

Una hypocrisy study for havard. I salute you.

Davash222:
Your siblings that are your relatives doesn't want the boy but you want your husband that is not your relative to accept the boy
You should learn to attend to your responsibilities and mistakes. Don't drag your mistakes to that innocent man. He has done more than enough for you.

Marrying a Nigerian girl with two children(not even one) is not what every man can do. That man deserves peace and respect from you.

Mariangeles:
OK o.
Just be careful... Home cooked meals for now

Sensible

Mariangeles:
Abego!

What's the food thread without Coco's posts?

I’m sure it will still be very interesting

payperpost:
abeg don't bring corona virus to this thread oo., Italian restaurant gini?

Mariangeles:
For the love of God, don't.
They kinda seem more susceptible to corona

Fear fear people.

Okay I won’t go

BlueRayDick:
Italian restaurant fa

Please don't go o. Italians seem to be the major carrier of the virus going by the news we hear everyday

There case was so surprising to me.

I’ll just wait and see

AgbenuAnna:
It’s well
What are you cooking for us
I need to loose weight but love of food erh
I will gym next week sha

I wasn’t even planning on cooking. Had two Italian restaurants in mind to try. Now I’m like should I go? Should I not?

Good luck with the gym though: it’s important
