Abiagirl777:
we were 7 wks postpartum yesterday,so thanks for the concern
It still doesn't stop me from loving donuts.
About the okra soup you described, it'd surely look like baby's diarrhoea poo.Is ketchup ur ppl's native ingredient?

yes it is in Delta for Soups and jallof rice, any problem with that do you think Probz's okro soup is betta dan mine!

Abiagirl777:
you want attention abi?Just swerve!!

no im thinking of the unborn baby!!

Minabee:
I made native jollof rice (my way).

well I think you need more oil, is looking kinda dry, I know we Igbos like d dry jollof rice but sometimes oil is good ok

Abiagirl777:
I luv donuts.Its my 3rd craving after abacha(African salad and party rice)in preg,n that order.where do u stay?

abacha and party rice togera you dey crazy
hia!!!well just be tink of d unborn baby you will poison with sugary donuts, you should be eating onugbu and drinking ugu juice ok

aljharem:
I do not know

so why you claiming party jollof as Yoruba food if you not tasted d ibo one

iomoge2:
Boiking meat.

Okay i used small water b4 and added more after pre boiling 2 enable me cook ogbonno.

#4 people that will say water is too much...

E hen.....see my meat.
Special.
With the skin attached...
Sweet n yummy....

chicken in ogbono Ina pu ara, mad girl. Well I think it doesn't look nice, you ought to put turmeric curry thyme maggi and plenty onion ok

Probz:
Ofe okwuru. Beef's my only obstacle.

ok so for any palm oil/tomato based dish, i swap d red oil-tomato for tomato ketchup .. it just adds to that deep red color and is healthier than too much oil

what i do is grate my okro with either cheese grater or blender till smooth, then i will boil it till all the water dries

in a separate pot put ketchup and a little groundnut oil, now when the groundnut oil sizzle you now add onion, turmeric (gives sweet aroma and flavour), dried or fresh thyme, basil and bay leave on the okro puree, fry fry until the water is dry. then put dry fish and goatmeat and just enough water to cook the orisirisi meet. when that cooks, add crayfish and serve with eba.

thas my own style of cooking it, my mum taught me. different but worth a try and very sweet. what do you guys tink?

note that what you'll do to the ketchup to melt it before the groudnut mix is pur i in pot, mix with hot water SMALL o, and steam it until it melts. then add the groudnut oil and put okro etc as you would

pls someone try it and let me know the results

THAT is how you cook okro soup ok, not that nonseing you don post for here foolish man

Probz:
Ofe okwuru. Beef's my only obstacle.

hian!! Well im sorry that looks very awful and oily, e be like say ofe mmanu don cook this!! disgusting, let me post my own okro recipe because mine is far better than yours, you tink you can cook but you just arrogant and your food looks disgusting.

Pepper soup

Ingredients-shaki, okpoloko, vinegar, tomato ketchup, crayfish and ogiri okpei, em sugar and paprika, 10 red scotch. Bonneting

boil the shaki and stockfish in vinegar till soft. The trick here be that vinegar is actually sweeter than normal water and you will get the sour taste to combine well with equally sour agidi ok. den add crayfish and okpei wen e don cook finish, let it boil and add sugar, pepe, paprika and two tablespoons of tomato ketchup ok. then when it boils take it off the stove and serve with rice, AGIDI or on its own wit chilled drink ok. Now ketchup na active part of making soup in my part of Nigeria ok

I’m from Anambra State but I have maternal links to Igala so my mum’s side of the family speaks a decent range of Nigerian languages. My mum’s grandma was from Nsukka and she married an Idah man and her daughter (my grandma) married an Awka man. She’s bilingual in Igala and general Northern Igbo (Nsukka and Awka dialects). My mum picked up Yoruba in Lagos and she was born in Kogi during the war so she can understand about a third of Igala. Her sister was born in Borno so she’s bilingual in Igbo and Hausa. My paternal side’s monolingual in Igbo. That’s four languages represented in my family – the main three (Hausa, Igbo and Yoruba) + Igala. Yours?

I've noticed that most people from Awka are a little mixed with Igala and my maternal side's no exception. Not surprising.

oh so you want to claim to be Igala because you so ashamed of being onye igbo in apu ala!! well we only speak Ibo in my Ouse ok well when I was living in ogwashi ukwa ok

laudate:
Igala has disowned Biafra. And there is no need to call people 'fake', for not agreeing with your proposed republic. Even the Almighty God gave every human being, freedom of choice!

oo I agree, no mind eastern Igbo and their claiming tendency! Well am delta and I respect oda ethnicities ok not everyone should be claimed into Biafra that is fact! Igbo make me so angry to be ashamed of being pat of them sef

aljharem:
moin moin (bean pudding)
Akara (bean cake)
ekoo (starch pudding)
ogi can be of three colours depending on the source red(guinea corn), yellow or white (normal corn)

ademasta:
Got your point... But
The said Ketchup might be an active ingredient in making Egusi soup where she comes from... Her cooking skills tho...

Thanks

scarletpearl:
my love for cooking allows me experiment any meal, add or subtract, some people believe fresh fish(frozen) is best vegetable okra soup,well I say variety is the spice of life,I have prepared both, can't decide which is sweeter though.

ingredients for turkey okra soup
-okra
-turkey
-dry fish
-cow skin(ponmo)
-cray fish
-pumpkin leave(ugu)
-palm oil
-dry grinded pepper (preferably Cameron pepper,nice scent)
-seasoning
-locust bean (if desired)

method of cooking
wash and grate okra using a grater( I use knife and a chopping board or knife only)
wash,put turkey and dry fish in a pot add salt,onion,curry thyme,Maggi (grate nut meg if u wish,love the smell)
add the dry grinded pepper
allow it to cook for about10mins add palm and cover till the turkey is cooked
add grinded crayfish and locust beans
add cow skin
add okra
add pumpkin leave
allow it to boil for 2 min and its ready.


NB:make sure the quantity of water is not so much, better the soup is thick than to be too watery,you can always add water if its too thick
*the hardness of the cow skin determines the time you would add it. if soft,add it late but if hard, add it to turkey immediately
*same methods with chicken, beef, fresh fish etc

aww lovely work ok

poshestmina:

em my food sweet pass, wont you come and eat

pazienza:
All is obviously set for tomorrow’s grand celebration of this year’s historic traditional New Yam Festival (Ine), in the ancient kingdom of Onicha-Ugbo, Aniocha Local government Area of Delta State.



There is also reason to look forward to a peaceful and colourful celebration based on assurances given to that effect by the Obi of Onicha-Ugbo Kingdom, HRM the Obi of Onicha Ugbo, Agbogidi Victor Chukwuma-lieze1 and the Minister of State for Petroleum Resources, Dr. Ibe Kachiku, who is also the Odogwu, traditional Defence Minister of the kingdom, respectively. Speaking exclusively in his traditional Ogwa (inner palace), on Tuesday August 30, before the traditional royal procession across the kingdom, to offer prayers to God and the forebears for a peaceful festival, the highly cerebral Obi Chukwumalieze1, who established the historical link between the new yam festival and the emergence of Onicha-Ugbo, said that though the ancestral origin of the founder of the kingdom, Ezechima, is still shrouded in mythical speculations till today, he was generally believed to have migrated from Arochukwu, in present day Eastern region of Nigeria, to the ancient Benin kingdom, where he had found great favour with the then King, Oba Eweka, as a result of his ingenious proficiency, energetic dexterity, excellent craftsmanship and fabled sorcery.

pls, explain to me the difference beteeen Igbo and yoruba jellof rice ok, how will mama Nkechi cook ers compared to iya basira

wandy nem bumade ok

Salt, Afang leafys (okazi), salt, crayfish, turmericing, uziza, em wandy le bumadeee oo oo ok

feel free to be asking me d necessary questions ok

bigfrancis21:
I'm sorry I don't have an answer for you, or else I would have responded since.

why you been so mean!! Cant you tell me how jollof rice is cooked and eaten in igboland Do you not cook d jollof rice yourself

bigfrancis21:
That's how some of you dwell in ignorance. Go and read Olaudah Euiano's book about Igboland in the 1700s, published earlier than your 1896 book.

How sure are you that Ife was Yoruba-speaking in the 1500s? Provide your proof of that.

answer me now!!

laudate:
You dey mind am? People like him have nothing sensible to contribute to the discussion at hand, that is why they resort to insults. God bless you, jare.

hon don't mind rude people like Probz ok, they very bitter and jealous. I for one like you, well am Delta ibo and is more exposed and sympathetic than the core easterners ok

bigfrancis21:
Most of this is false and chest-beating. Forget that accommodating title you just claimed, it's not as if Igbos were given land or shops or houses free of charge to inhabit. They worked for every single thing they have today. In addition, by being citizens of Nigeria they have the right to live anywhere in Nigeria, that is not accommodation. It is very silly to say that you accommodated a Nigerian citizen. The US is a country of millions of immigrants worldwide but you never hear them claim 'accommodating'. That is very silly and immature to say.

Many times you guys think Igbos were doing nothing while you 'had empires' as if that makes you any better. Go look it up, Igbo ukwu artworks were made/predate all other artworks in southern Nigeria, including Ife and Benin. They are described as being more intrinsic, more detailed and with high level of finesse. Igbo civilization has been discovered to be the oldest in southern Nigeria, preceding Bini and Ife. Evidence suggests ancient Igbos were trading with as far as Egypt and Mali. However, many of you don't know this as you love to go back only 200 years ago when Oyo empire existed, totally forgetting to go back a 1000 years. I have my links/proof but I'll let you run around in circles first before I post them.

so instead of to. Ansa my question on Igbo jollof rice you ignore me and post about ancient oyo civilisations Please just answer my question on rice!!
