I love the fact that you serve it on one plate because that's how you want it. You're not teaching us tradition, you're only teaching us how to cook and your cooking is second to none. Anyone that wants to add traditions style by separating the garri and soup can do so but not to judge how you enjoy eating or condem your style because we all have our own style. Thank you joyful cook for bringing another best menu on the table I appreciate all you do!! One love ❤❤❤

Hello dear, sorry to ask. What state do you reside in the US, that you always have fresh African green leafy vegetables, such as Ogu(pumpkin leaves) Uziza and the rest? Especially, my favorite vegetables, Ogu.? I really admire that and love ur cooking too. ❤️❤️❤️🇳🇬💯🇺🇸🩸❤️

[@bubugodwin3480]

Nice one 👍, but I think the best way to get your achi not to be lumpy is to add your cooking oil to the achi first, dissolve the achi in the cooking oil before adding to the pot of soup ,that way you won't have even a single lump.God bless us all

[@zoe2188]

Running to my kitchen to cook this soup and that very same eba! 😮😊

[@stayingrozy131]

Goat meat, kpoma, stock fish, snail, smoked fish and crafish all in one pot of soup. Upon all that you still added not one but two maggi cubes. Na waa. I used to cook like that until it hit me that, soup my mother prepared with just a little bit of beef and crayfish tasted sweeter. That's when I reduced my ingredients and simplified my cooking recipe. Since then I have been enjoying Igbo native meals in the authentic way. Try cooking snail with smoked fish and of course crayfish in any base no meat.
