Being rich is relative oooo grin

Am showing how I cook the meals and anybody can make theirs at their own budget,
things are expensive out there to eat out often especially with a family.

Smh! Just yesterday I asked a colleague what Igbo food he knows or has eaten. He said he was given Ukwa once and he never visited that family again.

I hate ukwa too. Please don’t try to convince me otherwise. I’ll fight you! angry

You and that your colleague needs to come here. I need to check and fix your taste buds, babe grin


I hope it's not all these preserved township ukwa that you guys have been eating? grin

There's a way we cook it here.

When next you come in from Cambodia, please Holla.


Nicely home made ukwa will be waiting for you.



Pocohantas, I want to experiment with the garden egg sauce.

Wetin na !

Money will surely come.

Ukwa (breadfruit) belongs to the beans family. But I think its healthier, tastes better and more nutritious than beans.

It's my favourite way because I don't like anything interfering with/overpowering its original taste.
