This video show you how to prepare it

I chop this doya well for katsina...i only stopped buying it when i saw how almajiri will touch it to tap some oil and lick his fingers not once, not twice, they stand in front of the seller and it's norm over there, the seller even serve with bare hands after using their kettle to wash their preek up and down. All these thoughts killed my likeness for it nevertheless it tastes good then mixed with awara

Battered yam (i.e) Yamarita.

It was my dad that taught us to make this. It is not just a street food, it has upgraded and can be found in uptown breakfast menus.

This is gross though. I won’t eat it after seeing it prepared that way, not even if I am offered money.

Lol Doya da Kui is delicious but highly unhygienic when you buy from a road side Aboki who has an Almajiri as apprentice. He consistently licks his hand after serving a customer and used the same hand to serve another.

What exactly is he licking his hand for?

More like a reflex action .
Probably licking the oil and little egg particles that glue to his hand after serving a customer, and Without washing that hand, he uses it to serve another customer. ( Customer Service )

North sweet but those immigrants from Futa Jalon aka the Vulture city in Guinea wey come Hausa land & conquer them some 200 years ago, na them spoil am. Hausa man no get problem at all.

Is a popular food in restaurants here in UK and other parts of Europe, I doubt if it originated from Nigeria

My fast food back then in Gidan Kwano FUTMX...

Eat this unhygienic food at your peril

No be only only Kwia ... As I native speaker of Hausa, the pronunciation funny die for my ears.

Op. It's KWAI Meaning Egg

I remember eating this delicacy a lot during my secondary school days in the north . Getting back home, I would prepare it for my family to eat. That was about 24 years ago! E don tey!

Waris dis?
Who made dis shit

oh., this is so yummy

I always salivate when I see this delicacy, especially when we stop at kaduna to eat

Good food made by good people...
