ReplyDeletePounded yam soup. Sometimes that time, she'll wake me late at night so I can eat.
ReplyDelete#iLovemyGrandma
Mine is between ofe akwu and ofe onugbu. I truly can't choose. Though as a kid it was ofe nsala. Proudly Anambra chic
ReplyDeleteI come from a long line of cooks.. cooks not chefs..
ReplyDeleteThe best ofe onugbu(bitter leaf soup) i have eaten till date are the ones made by my grandma..
She cooks the best soups.. From onugbu, to nsala, oha, and my favorite jollof rice.. Oh my goodness!
Her cooking is second to none..
I'm glad She passed it down to my mum, then to me..
I will never ever forget her dishes, for as long as i live.
Hope we aint sharing the same grandma

DeleteTeam Anambra chicks

DeleteMy grandma?
Died when I was young can't remember her cooking
Can only remember her eating and making so much noise with her tongue
That was very very irritating though
Like say make I slap her
If no be say she be my grandma
I remember Palm oil rice and I remember tasting pepper and crayfish .
ReplyDeleteMy granny's pounded yam with efo riro is always on point.
ReplyDeleteLol. My grandma na character herself, cos the reverse is the case when it comes to cooking. You dare not enjoy her food cos her food na drug itself. Can you imagine eating unwashed bitter leaf soup? That's my grandma for you. She would slice the bitter leaf like vegetable and mehnn, food is ready.
ReplyDeleteEeeeew...
DeleteI love granny no doubt
But
I can't eat her food.
No way
I can't forget my Granny's Akidi *very tasty food* and Ugwogoro soup (don't know if I got the spelling right). She was the best Grand mum and I really miss her. God rest her soul.
ReplyDeleteMy mum too can cook for Africa.
No Ofeakwu is better than my Granny's own. With plenty dry fish, fresh fish and goat meat. My Grandma is BAE, she used to write me letters and send me money when i was in secondary school. Now when she calls me to buy her anything i don't look back even though i know she still has more money than me. It just feels good to give back.
ReplyDeleteLoL
ReplyDeleteI enjoy all. Especially white soup.
ReplyDeleteBut my granny likes cooking 'bene seed' soup and me no like it oh....i always use the 'water' to eat my poundo yam and leave the rest.hahaha....so whenever I'm around,she cooks every other food but 'bene seed'.
So Shantelle na Benue girl, you go sabi fcuk sha.
DeleteMy Iye used to prepare starch and banga soup for me. Oh how I miss my childhood trips to Benin. RIP Iyenogie.
ReplyDeleteIye!! This took me back to my secondary school days in benin..
DeleteHmmm. You might just be my cousin. Or sibling sef. My papa born plenty. And my big sister lives in North Dakota...
DeleteBetter Afang soup with periwinkle,stockfish,dryfish,big big meat,plenty crayfish,kpomo and yellow garri.Jesussssss!!!I used to dance in the kitchen while she cooked.I have taken over though,its my specialty.

ReplyDeleteYou havent answered the question.
DeleteI am really not a food person, but loves snacks a lot. My grandma improvised by making me local snacks like cassava cake (akara jiakpu), usu (made with egusi) and fried breadfruit. Whenever she hears that anyone was traveling to the north, she must package these delicacies for me. I am her favourite grandchild, her death/burial was a celebration of life, but I cried cos I would really miss her. RIP Mma Nko.

ReplyDeleteLOVEME JEJE IS UGU not UGWU... UGU is pumpkin leaf, but I wonder why google has UGWU instead of UGU.
ReplyDeleteMy grand ma has favourite grand children, may be because we lived in same compound. When I finally left home and returned, nothing special for me, except the normal AKARA jakpu, usu, belebele-nnama or so, etc. She cooks OFE OWERRI wella and doesn't allow anyone cook for her.
Oh....grandma's efere nsana

I have 2 grandmother's one white and one Igbo . I love Igbo granny's ofe nsala and onugbu, even now I'm married she sends me onugbu by bus to my base hahaha! Also her porridge yam and fried yam was my favorite growing up. White grandma didn't cook much, but I miss her sandwiches and toast lol. Even though she's dead now I miss the Jollof rice she always asked her maid to cook for us . I pray God keeps my granny, but I'm very thankful to God that she has lived to see my child.
ReplyDeleteMy grandma's ofe egusi with ukazi and akpurakpu mgbam and achara with plenty stockfish is da bomb till now, God abeg keep her for me oooo
ReplyDeleteBreadfruit(ukwa)
ReplyDeleteHnmmm, my grandma food seems irresistible, the number one reason I go on a visit to her place is to eat her fufu with soup(usually called omi obe in yoruba ) accompanied with fresh fish and even meat sometimes, and she balance it with ewedu that has been well garnished with iru... Hnmmm, this food is so delicious that wherever I find myself, I always crave for my granny's fufu cos no other fufu and soup taste like granny's... Olohun je ki isu omo o Jina fun iya alakara ooo(that's what we call her ooooooo)
ReplyDeleteLuam and nune soup, roasted yam and vegetable sauce. I remember since childhood I am a lover of yam, she will always hide some up the rafta, continue to rest in the Lord.
