Made this Edikaikong soup and downloaded it with semo for lunch.

Please don't ever believe that your mum's accusations that your wife and her family are behind your financial problem. No wife wants her husband to be broke, who wants to suffer?
Life is full of challenges, this is yours. Sickness, loss, anything can happen at anytime. I know someone that just bought a house this year, this month fire has destroyed it. That is life for you. Keep trying and you will get back on your feet again.

Ekpangkukwo for lunch.
I used ugu leaves for the cocoyam wrap and garnished it with fresh curry leaves & scent leaves.

Naaa, I'll prefer you drop your message here or on a dead thread.

hi Idy. Can I send a mail?

Goat meat pepper soup.

Jellof rice and beans with egg for lunch. Kindly ignore the picture quality.

Anytime I buy spaghetti slim by mistake, I add very little water and cook for few minutes only. Monitor it and filter out the water immediately it is soft. For jellof spaghetti, I don't parboil it & I add very little water. It doesn't like much water & long cooking.

I love them that size so they can go into each spoon of rice.

MrLibrarian:
abadie?
Nice delicacy but the size of those chickens seems small, I actually like dem giant sizes

Thanks.

This looks 🤤🤤🤤

Rice with chicken pepper soup for dinner.

I still don't understand the rational behind ladies changing their names to their husbands first name. Surname is ok but adding his first name as if your parents didn't do naming ceremony during your birth and gave you your own names.

You can travel to other states for vacation on your own. If you have relatives in other states e.g grandparents, aunties, you can visit them. Or just lodge in a hotel. You don't need to live outside Lagos but you can visit/tour other states. It isn't good to be in just one location all your life. Explore, it brings exposure.

Fresh not wet.

Wet or dry?

Some sellers don't wash their afang. The afang my dad just brought from the village for us, I washed all and dried them under the sun. A lot of dirt & sand came out of it. Some sellers don't wash it, they just cut & sell it like that.

sheycrown:
I once tried grinding it in the market but it was “sandy” when I cooked it. I was tasting sand in the soup. Is there a way to prevent that?

That means their machine was dirty or the sellers didn't wash the afang or the crayfish they used to bring it out of the grinder wasn't selected. I always select the crayfish before giving it to them to grind the afang out.
For hygiene sake, you can continue pounding it at home to avoid the sand issue.

Pounding of afang is just suffer head. Grind the afang in the market, that's what I do.

iamL:
Same here. I only get discouraged whenever I want to make afang due to the pounding of the leaves. I will forever bless a friend who taught me some of their delicacies.

How do prefer your periwinkles With or without shells?

Atama isn't bitter, maybe you ate a different soup. This is palm kernel and atama leaves. Just like Banga.

Ihebu4chelsea:
That bitter leaf...

Been cooking atama soup all afternoon. Just finished downloading it with semo.

Jellof rice & chicken for dinner.

He should be totally replaced cos his own is selective banning. USA student visa thread is a total mess, yet he did nothing for months.

One derica of beans is now 2,000 in my area. Na WA.

The students will never get the money. It seems you haven't experienced it before. A top lawyer gave the owner of my secondary school 150k back then for the best graduating student in government (waec). I won it & the money was never given to me or my parents, instead I was given a novel. Never trust Nigerians with money, give the money to the person directly instead.

Inosky:
How many people come get now? He for give it to the VC to share to make sure all students get equal amount

Semolina/semovita and wheat are cheaper. I have stopped eating garri for almost 3 months now.

NIBBS is having issues. I was stranded today at the supermarket, I had to go back home to get my ATM card so that I could pay for my goods. Only same bank transfers are going through for now.

The award they gave justwise for best moderator should be revoked because he doing absolutely nothing and being selective when it comes to banning accounts. Just look at the rubbish this thread has turned into.

Start a business around something you know very well or have learnt. Also ask God for guidance.

Wigs especially human hair wigs. People make millions a month selling them. Buy for 100k from Vietnam & sell 300k, ladies don't joke with looking good.

Get a job or business so that you can be busy & make money. From your profile you comment on every single post, it's only a jobless & ideal person that does that. Get something doing so you can have a life. Nairaland jobless broke guys, I don't have your time.

Wotowotoman:
This one say na jellof rice. Wetin be this? Must you post food picture? Haba na…

Keep your apologize, I don't need it. Learn to mind your business.

Domaining101:
Please i didn't mean to upset you at all, i just thought you were suffering alot because that rice and chicken looked so white and empty, as if they lacked spices and other ingredients. I felt like it was a once in a blue moon type of food that you probably borrowed limited resources to cook. I didn't mean to upset you at all please, my sincere apologies.

A lot of nairaland guys are mad. Nobody should quote me with rubbish or else I will insult you.

Keep your rubbish prayer to yourself. I have never been in poverty and will never be. What do you mean by how I'm living? I cooked rice with chicken and you are calling it poverty. You must be very mad. Pray yourself out of poverty not me. I have an excellent job and side hustle that pays me well so you are the one that poverty is dealing with. Fool.

Domaining101:
play what did i say to warrant all these insults? I only prayed for you and you insulted me in return. Or do you like how you're living?
