A-Shrimp using locally-sourced veg in place of the waterleaf was genius. I often have to make reasonable substitutes when cooking dishes of other places' cuisine, so I'll deem his effort "as genuine as possible". Thank you for the wonderful video you posted. I enjoyed every bit of it. Reminded me a lot of my youthful time visiting my nanny's (later, stepmother's) hometown (Castillejos, Zambales) in The Philippines back in the mid-1970s, with water buffalo wandering about town, and somewhat rustic conditions -- intermittent electric service, community toilet, everything up on stilts because close enough to coastline for baguio (typhoon) flooding. Loved every bit of that, as a kid, though.

To put into context: I strongly suspect Atomic Shrimp said "fake" only to let viewers know it that it wasn't 100% authentic. He likes to be thorough and factual. Not to imply that he felt it was less in any way beyond that.

In my first year at university in the early 80s, one of my flatmates was Nigerian, he cooked us a banquet one day which featured a soup like this. I, like you resorted to using a spoon, I just couldn't shape the dough into something with which I could pick up enough soup. The whole thing was delicious, but chilli-hot, I helped myself to some fried rice to lessen the heat, only to find that it was the hottest part of the meal! It was red, I presumed because of the palm oil, but it also had heap of Nigerian stone ground chilli powder in it, he found my reaction amusing :)

A bunch of my coworkers are from Western Africa...attended a baby shower for one of them. Needless to say the food was exotic for my tastebuds. The smells were familiar, but the tastes and textures were extremely different than what I imagined. *on a side note...they thought my boyfriend was hilarious at the baby games being that he didn’t understand their accent or what he was eating...my bad, but they’re a lovely community. A lot of what they ate is what my taste palate couldn’t tolerate. But much of that was the spice level. And it’s an extremely different sort of spice. *try Liberian spicy mango* which makes me drool and raise an eyebrow at the same time and tear up. I’m very intrigued by this remake video. It brings me back to my coworkers in a way I didn’t even think was possible. We’re a work family and I forgot how different our tastes were until now. 🤦🏻‍♀️

Thank you Shrimp & Babatunde! i appriciate you introducing me to these dishes i would have never seen otherwise. For anyone who is curious to try this i have some reccomendations: - replace the stockfish with well-fried smoked haddock, the goosefoot with spinach, the palm oil with veg oil, and the 6 scotch bonnets with just 1/2 a scotch bonnet and 1 red bell pepper, (scotch bonnet simulation for the british pallate) the miso paste with locust beans (but you know that already) - its honestly one of the nicest and healthy stews ive ever made, happy cooking!

The palm oil is solid at low temperatures since it's mostly saturated fat. That's something all saturated fats have in common (coconut oil, lard, butter, cheese, cacao butter etc). Nice video! From what I heard unrefined palm oil is a healthier than the refined one, it contains some carotenoids, hence the red color.

You might get the fish and the locus bean paste at Yau Bros - obviously they are specialists for far-east cuisines but worth a go. But International Foods does have a good range.

This is so interesting! I don’t know anything about Nigerian cuisine. I always love learning about different cultures through their food. I’ll be off next to watch the Babatoundey video. Regarding the cost, it seems to me that if one stocked a Nigerian kitchen, then roughly half the ingredients would be pantry staples. Engaging topic and well presented, as always Mr. Shrimp! Thank you. Edit: Please disregard my remarks about cost. I hadn’t yet seen the first video (linked below) and didn’t know the conditions of the challenge.

The maggi cubes are the right ones they only make the “cubes” in that size they have cuboids which are bigger but not the same ones you can crush with your fingers they’re more dissolvable.

You can get whole or partial dry fish like Babatoundey used in Chinatown, it's used in a lot of SE Asian soups too.

Thank you for talking about other cultures flavors and food preparation routines in a way that respects them. For example, saying that eating soup without a spoon was a skill that you haven't yet mastered is WONDERFUL! I am from the USA and would love it if other people from my country could view cultural differences as a skill vs looking down on them for not doing things the way "we" do them.... if that makes sense

I have an African mate, from Togo, and this recipe looks familiar to me, I've been wanting to comment since I saw Babatunde his video it is tasty, and the Eba, very pleasant. Can see your change of mind the second day, spicy food is much spicier when cooled.

I love the exchange you had. Very creative video and thinking outside the box. This soup seemed so up your alley too. I'm sort of glad you had to find the goose foot. So you had to forage rather than buying something in the supermarket.

Palm oil, I don't know, but I see how the other flavours can work together and that it should make a very tasty dish. You are mentioning Thai food, in fact there is a dish of sauted broccoli leafs and salted fish. Very greeny leafs, thick and strong flavor on the fish, lot of chili too.
