Food › Re: How Do You Prepare Afan Soup by FRR1: 3:16pm On Mar 11, 2013

[bSOUP: AFANG
ORIGIN: AKWA IBOM/CROSS RIVER STATES][/b]

INGREDIENT FOR A POT OF SOUP FOR 3 SERVINGS:
300 - 350 NAIRA WORTH OF GROUND AFANG LEAVES
3 BUNCHES OF WATER LEAVES
A BOTTLE OF PALM OIL
A LITER OF WATER
2 HEADS OF STOCK FISH
300 NAIRA WORTH OF EXTRACTED PEREWINKLES
300 NAIRA WORTH OF DRY FISH
500 NAIRA WORTH OF BEEF
2 CUBES OF SEASONING

PRE-COOKING DIRECTIONS:

1. Make sure that the Afang leaves are, first, chopped and later ground.
2. Make sure that your wash the leaves sufficiently and chop them. If not at the market, then at home. Water leaves carry a lot of sand.
2. The best type of water leaves to buy are those with little leaves. Those with big leaves are always watery and will require cooking before being use. However, those with little leaves can be used directly without pre-cooking them. If you bought those watery ones, you will have to cook it with a separate pot until the water is dried up from the pot. The downside of this is that your soup has lost the first step of freshness.
3. Also cook the stock fish until the flesh is soft. If you are using the stock fish head, make sure you remove the two "stones" found in the stock fish head before you use it in the main soup. You don't want your dad or visitor to munch those daredevils

4. Also cook your beef until it is done.
5. Do not to discard the water that was used to cook the stock fish and beef. That is the water you are gonna use for the main soup. Normally, you aren't meant to use any other water. Unless you feel like diluting the soup.
6. Wash the fish carefully to remove dirts and sand.
7. If you are gonna use perewinkle, try to remove the caps from the extracted perewinkles if you have time. Else use them like that, but you will spend most of your eating time struggling with the caps. Your visitor won't like this either.
8. Afang soup goes well with dry fish and not fresh fish. According to my parents, that was the way our ancestors passed it down wink

9. [s]I never mentioned onion. PLS!! And don't ask me why. That's the way our people say it's done.[/s]

MAIN DIRECTIONS:
1. Put the stock fish, perewinkles, dry fish and beef in the main soup pot and boil for about 2-5 minutes using the water that was used to prepare the beef and stock fish. If the water isn't enough just add a little. Afang soup taste well when it's rich and not overly diluted.
2. Then pour in the water leaves in the pot. Allow it to cook for about 2 minutes. Stir the pot and let the leaves mix with the "goodies."
3. Pour in the afang leaves and stir. And salt and seasoning to taste.
4. Add enough palm oil. Afang leaves absorbs a lot of oil, so if you don't put enough, it will be as if you never added any. Moreover, oil doesn't hurt

5. Allow the soup to simmer for about 5 minutes and then bring it down from fire.

Serve warm with garri or fufu.
Enjoy the "Calabar" hospitality

madone: Not a perfect truth as a guy I disagree with you 6 ,7 and 8 living in nigeria esp Lagos can make you fall victim of this ones abi are you now sayin that you get call credit all the time or that you must see her all the time don't you work abi. Na love she won chop.and setting what trip is she a rabbit? Stop putting all this silly thoughts to this ladies cos you ll cos more harm than good.every relationship has its strength and weaknesses

Love involves intimacy, a strong fondness of your partner. It involves regarding your partner as an extension of yourself. I disagree with you. When a lady stays for days (say 2-7) without calling or even "flashing", and when you finally called her she starts complaining of credit, just know that she's insincere. How much does a call cost these days? With just 10Naira you can make at least 1 min call. With less than 2Naira, you can flash someone. All these help to show that you are still interested and are thinking about your partner. We shouldn't use work as an excuse. Even though you were very during the weekdays, will still tell me that you were busy during the weekend. That you can't even go and visit your partner if you are staying close to him/her??

olumide098: seriously and honestly speaking, life without without a woman that can cares and love is empty Life. Need someone i can call mine, need someone that can show me Love again. need a friend that i can just pretend that atleast someone is there asking for my welbeing. its not an easy thing to be single....i know what am talking about

Guy, I'm in shoes too! At a time, I tried NL, but I can tell you that NL is just a bunch of anonymous people who are paranoid of revealing their identities because of the weight of the posts they have here.
So I advise to take the battle to the physical scene. Try to go out often and hangout. Church, market and streets are all there as an avenue of meeting your lady

Literature › Re: Bus Rapid Transit(BRT):Grammatical Error by FRR1: 1:06pm On Mar 06, 2013

In literature, there is something called Poetic Licence. Sometimes, when acronyms are being coined, strict grammatical rules might be overlooked in favour of simplicity and ease of usage. Bus Rapid Transit...Rapid Bus Transit...May be the author of the acronym wanted to arrange the words in alphabetical order. Somehow, it sounds better. BRT against RBT...This is poetic licence...Trust me the guys who coined this name are very literate to understand the order in which words are arranged in english language. Cheers.

cyrielo: A 40 –year old mother and her son may be considered to have done the unthinkable by falling in love with each other. And now they want to marry since the mom, is six months pregnant and expecting her

son's first child.

Mbereko, who was widowed 12 years ago, has been cohabiting with her first child, Farai Mbereko (23). She confirms that she is six months pregnant and that she has decided it is better to "marry" her son because she does not want to marry her late husband's young brothers, whom she says are coveting her.

Betty stunned a village court last week when she said the affair with her son had begun three years earlier. She said after spending a lot of money sending Farai to school following the death of her husband, she felt she had a right to his money and no other woman was entitled to it.

"Look, I strove alone to send my son to school and no one helped me. Now you see that my son is working and you accuse me of doing something wrong. "Let me enjoy the products of my sweat," she told the village court.

Farai said he was more than prepared to marry his mother and would pay off the ilobola balance his father had left unpaid to his grandparents. "I know my father died before he finished paying the bride price and I am prepared to pay it off," he said.

"It is better to publicise what is happening because people should know that I am the one who made my mother pregnant. Otherwise they will accuse her of promiscuity."

But local headman Nathan Muputirwa says: "We cannot allow this to happen in our village, mashura chaiwo aya, (This is a bad omen indeed).

In the past they would have to be killed but today we cannot do it because we are afraid of the police." He warned them to break off their marriage or leave his village.

They chose the latter and have left the village to an unknown destination.

The thread is messed up, and that's true. So what if clean our mess up. OK @RedBenson & @itsModella, pls let's stop fight. I don't know if @OP is satisfied with the responses here. Would you say you've achieved your desires??

**his is my own personal question)**
Ladies, what do you want a guy to do in order to prove that he loves you. And how do a man differentiate b/w a girl that is there to "chop" him and the one that is real?? I hope this restores the thread back to order.
