You didn't tell us soups or stews that goes with it.



Is this a kind of swallow ?


Looks appetizing.
I usually eat it with Rivers state stew

There's nothing special about this meal, just another way to eat yam and plantain both very starchy foods. There's nothing nutritious about this meal, it's just another way to get pot belly and diabetes. We are in the 21st century and most of us are educated, its high time we start applying some of that education rather than continuing with old traditions that are unhealthy. Eat salad, include grains, fruits, vegetables, protein and drink lots of water.
I agree with you

I think the best way to have this done is to have a serious policy/programme to improve on the dishes with all these assortments, rather than to totally discard the old menus. Add new ones too. It will be hard to ask the people to jettison the type of food they grew up with. But you can insist as a government that meals must include so so and so proteins and vegetables But then, that's if the foodstuffs are affordable or subsidised.

I first ate it in Okrika with pepper soup and liked it until one Ijaw girl come cook am with not so ripe plantain for me and I hated it with seed everywhere....The plantain used for this needs to be over ripe so the sweetness can be felt

Nairalanders are not kids, they know the kinds of food they enjoy and the one that is good for them. Nigerians eat all of these you mentioned except salad which they still don’t reject. They only need to eat more of their fruits like pawpaw, pineapple, avocado pear, orange and okra.

Buy a food processor: it pounds yam perfectly. This way, you can enjoy pounded yam and stop thinking every female wants to marry you.

As kids many years ago, we used to eat prepared starch colored with palm oil.

Never heard or eaten Onunu before. If it has never been eaten in Lagos, it is not Nigerian or from the South for that matter.

Onunu may be one of those new delicacy but I could be wrong o.

A food processor is an electrical machine that cuts, slices and has the ability to pound food. With it you can pound your yam and don’t have to worry about women fighting to marry you.

Ripe plantain is not starchy oga educated educator. This meal is one of the most balance diet that an ethnic group ever invented. And it always goes with well seasoned pepper stew. Don't ever throw away your culture because the white men confused you to.
