22. Ijebu Garri and Groundnut

Nothing is as soothing as taking Garri and Groundnut with chilled water in the afternoon. The combination gives a kind of fulfilment that only a true Nigerian can understand.

When you take Garri and groundnut isn’t there, it just feels wrong.

Even though, exotic foods are delicious and enjoyable; once in a while, some of these foods can make you feel rootless and homesick.

We know it is not easy to bring Nigerian foodstuff abroad. If you try it, you will be shocked at how people will snigger at your bags packed with Nigerian foodstuffs at the airport, especially when you have Iru (locust beans) in the bag.

There are certain foods Nigerians miss most when living abroad. Although, these foods are not necessarily our favourites, but they remind us of our fatherland and it is no wonder we get sad when alternative foods do not meet up with the original ones in taste and appearance.

Here are 22 foods Nigerians miss most while living abroad:

REAL pounded yam. No powder.

This is a false assumption.
We get everything here, we miss nothing.

I buy garri, pap, egusi, ogbono, red oi, stock fish here in America.
The only things we miss are fruits such as Mango, udala. All other fruits are here.

We miss breadfruit a lot ( UKWA), i can spend $ 1000,on it just to have it here.

This is true depending on the country the person reside. But in most part of Europe especially the UK, eating Egusi, Oha, Nigerian indomie noodles, ewedu and most African dishes is never a problem. They have them on African shops where you can buy and fix yourself or at Nigerian restaurants. Though at an extra cost from what is obtain in Naija which is understandable owing to importation charges.

2. Tuwo Sinkafa

Tuwo Shinkafa is one of the most delicious foods in the Northern part of Nigeria.

Tuwo is made by soft rice and spicy sauce. The Hausa tribes love this food and that is why most of them living abroad miss it so much.

i need to learn how to make this. Do you have a recipe?
