I haven't eaten dinner yet but yesterday I had fufu and soup with some lebanese bread with mayonaise and boiled eggs in it.

Post what you had. it will help give me cooking ideas. And remind me that you folks still love our Liberian dish.

Same here on the fufu and soup. Man that soup had my noise running. It had shrimp, tripe, goat meat, fish, smoke turkey, and all the other animals Laughing

Then I made the real Bassa man dudu to go with the fufu. I have never seen my dad eat and go to sleep but this food did it.

I'm a big fan of fried plaintain and fish.

I try some thing different the last time and it was great. I had some fresh coconut oil from Liberia and I used it to fried my cassava leaf, man can you say finger licking good. What the american saying"It's was so good that it make you wanna slap your momma." Laughing

I'm hook on that now. Every time I cook cassava leaf, I have to frie it in coconut oil.

Ok let me stop, thats why i'm getting fat around here.

Stay Bless

I put some ox tail, dried fish, bonnie, tripe, some "stinky-sweet" (ogesi), cow skin, some "bull foot" ( just cow foot, y'all). Dang!!!!!! it was slammin!

Peacerrrrrrrrrrrrr

Eba is made from dried and shredded cassava.

It is usually prepared similar to fufu, with boiled

water and made into a dough like texture.

The cassava is called Garri when it is dry. When it

has been made into dough texture it is called Eba.

Garri is a very versatile food.

Nigerians are known for enjoying Gari with cold water

added to it, some like to add sugar and some add

condensed or evaporated milk. Peanuts are eaten with it,

or dried fish, Beans which is called *Ewa* , or fried meats

chicken etc. It is extremely filling.

Cassava is one of those foods used world wide. The Europeans

call it manioc, and it is used in preparing Baby foods, and is

a basic ingredient in many European tinned foods simply because

it is starchy and bulks up the food.

Amazing how African foods dominate the Western world.

You comeing to dinner?

I enjoy cooking o.. Love my food too much
