RECIPE || HOW TO COOK IKOKORE (POPULAR IJEBU DISH)

Ikokore is a very popular Ijebu dish made with wateryam and super delicious!!! I cannot upload a recipe of Ojojo without uploading one for Ikokore: I usually make Ojojo from the remnants of the wateryam I use in making Ikokore. Ikokore versus Ojojo, which do I love more? That's a harrrrrd question! I hope you enjoy this recipe #Ijebu You can read the recipe on my blog too ☛ www.sisiyemmie.com . Please SUBSCRIBE to my channel if you aren't and click the LIKE button!

For anyone in London who can’t get water yam, a good alternative is to use yellow yam - the only difference is the colour and should be used in the same way as water yam. Because you’re cooking with palm oil, the yellowness of the yellow yam does not show and it’s just as delicious!

Just made my own 1st ikokore after 7yrs this video was made. Tnx to cyberspace and tnx to Sisi Yemmie.

[@MaiOakInspires]

It's been 7years, thanks to you I'm resurrecting this in my pot 2021.

[@Yemms]

A woman of many many talents! This looks delicious and is a popular meal in my home town-Ikenne remo!! I won't even try and make it again as I've tried many times and failed -it was lumpy and it didn't form lol!!Congratulations on your big win!! Wishing you and Bobo a happy married life when the D-day arrives amen!!

[@rufaikath1107]

I hardly comment on KZbin videos but honestly you earned it. I followed this tutorial and it's my first try and the outcome was awesome.. Thanks ma'am

[@emeldagreat7576]

Add cocoyam to make it harder. Very nice. I'm from Cameroon but I love this food. Eat it while growing up and 2019 I visited Nigeria and hard it. My children and spouse love it. Nice method. Easy to follow. Love the way you season ye fish and meat. Some people just put them in and it still taste raw and shabbyyy 🤣

I love me some Ikoko, I cook mine with gizzard too and wrap it in leaves. It is so yummy. Thanks for sharing Sisi mi.

[@SisiYemmieTV]

wrapping it in leaves gives it a spectacular aroma and taste

[@raphaelngozi8884]

Hello sisi yemmie, please kindly re- cook the ikokore recipe again but in another style. Thanks

[@titilayoonadipe9497]

What if the wateryam balls doesn't float immediately? What does it mean? Does it mean the wateryam is bad or what?

[@OluwatosinOgunleye]

Why do the final images look different than what I remember from my childhood? Maybe cos of all the extras thrown in cos my mum's own used to be totally red

[@theprintperfect]

Looks he'll good!!!

[@lolaadekola]

Yummyness! Nice 1 Sisi

[@SisiYemmieTV]

[@princesseleazar824]

Please I'll love to try it but what is it eaten with and can it be eaten like that

[@doriseyang]

It's a full meal by itself, a type of yam porridge

[@amaflavour7280]

Sis I Yemi congrats on your winning. god will prosper you marriage.

[@SisiYemmieTV]

[@ItsYourGirlTinu]

Are you from Ijebu and which side are you from because am Ijebu Remo, Nice food by the way, I love water yam

[@SisiYemmieTV]

Im from Ikorodu, which is now in Lagos but I think it used to be under Ijebu Ode.

[@desola1]

***** Ikorodu would have been under Ijebu Remo, darling. As Ikorodu is closer to Shagamu and Shagamu being Remo, Ikorodu would have been Remo. Infact, i am sure it is.

[@prissy1081]

***** I thought you were an Itsekiri from Warri. Are you Remo or...

[@AGoodWomanDiji]

Thank you for sharing , my late father is of Ijebu ancestry...Appreciate you:)

[@SisiYemmieTV]

[@AGoodWomanDiji]

[@hibbikay1]

Can one use cocoa yam instead of water yam to prepare this?

[@sanniabike4851]

You skipped the ogiri part? The secret recipe of a confirm ijebu ikokore is the ogiri..

[@dayoa8663]

Can i use regular yam?

[@SisiYemmieTV]

It won't be ikokore with normal yam, it has to be water yam cos of the texture

[@yesuolakunle2292]

[@celinebrown2091]
