Blender for banga ke? You want to damage the blender be that o

God bless Aunty Ijeoma, my former neighbour in Lafia. She used to give me this dish every Sunday.

It shall be well with you wherever you are, in Jesus name!

No be banga be this. If you chop urhobo or Kwale own with better starch. You no go call this one banga.

No MA. Some ppl use hand. You don't want to crack the nut but gently get the skin off its body.

Good. Having the food section grace the homepage is refreshing.

My favorite

That's the best way to get the juice off them or you use your hands. You'd have to get used to using a mortar or just forgo eating banga soup.

No, tomatoes shouldn’t be in ofe akwu. It is okay to put it, but it shouldn’t be there.

This is ofe akwu not banga. Take note

No try am o. The blender will pack up and run from your house. How do you people survive without a mortar?

Anyway, you can use your hands or put it in a small pot and pound with a bottle or that stuff for turning garri.

Lol @forego.

Forgo? No way! I'll rather wear leather gloves and use my hands. That soup/stew I'm seeing there is too good a thing to forgo.

Nice

But please try and cook with fresh ingredients

Banga and white soup...

The day I ate this soup with catfish at one of the Lord's Chosen canteen, Ijesha... Lol... na security team con wake me up

That's the spirit. Give it a try, you'll love it.

Make somebody serve @ the op the Urhobo /Isoko or Itsekiri version of banga soup wey them tidy with catfish or mudfish from the wild, then run am inside clay pot. Then use starch take knack am. I believe the op go understand the difference between banga soup and bingi soup.

It is our version in that the base is similar and the process is almost the same till it gets to the protein, some condiments and leaf. It is not a competition on which taste better, I have eaten both and I still find it weird to swallow it, just as they find it weird we use it for rice.

It is not banga, it is OFE AKWU.

pocohantas:

Without tomatoes my ofe akwu isn't complete.

Pocohantas, ignore that broke ass J111333 and let me introduce you to my cousin who works in Saipem. He is looking for a wife who can cook very well and you are a good specimen

Ukwuani people don't cook their Banga like this. We cook our ofe nkpulekwu with gborogi (water leaf), ugu, bitterleaf, egusi or okro. We boil the palm kernel extract until the oil begins to float and then dunk every every inside.

You see how people attract village pipu into their lives.
How can you call a lich man like me broke ass? Here 080601237890, call my accountant at Obosi Community bank and inquire how much of a billionaire that I am.

Pocohantas, biko ignore her. There is money and I can drive my keke all through the night to make more and take you on a Dubai Cotonou trip.
