I love your website and your recipes. I've learned a lot from you and tried some of your recipes and my husband (an Igbo man and I'm Yoruba) enjoyed the dishes very much. The only problem is that we can't buy the fresh vegetables required for some dishes here in Canada. I cooked Ugwu with Uziza the other day using dried versions. I also bought some dried Oha leaves which I plan to cook next.Please keep up the good work. Anytime I visit your site, I get hungry and miss home a lot!
Hi Abby, I,m so glad to be of help. I know how it feels to be far from home dear, and have to settle for dry leaves. But next time you can use spinach as a substitute for uguThanks for your lovely feedback hun 🙂

Hi I'm a Nigerian boy who hasn't cooked for a good 8 years since I left Nigeria and when I tried the Moi Moi recipe it was quite a disaster! The paste came out too rough and it didn't taste anything like moi moi! Please help!
Hi Ebuka, I don't think you made use of the recipe on our page.And if you made a paste with ''beans powder'', then you can't expect to get the same taste as the real thing, cos it contains preservatives. Next time, make use of fresh beans and follow our recipe as it is, and you won't have any problems.
Any advice for a fellow Nigerian studying in a Canadian University who is tired of searching for a food that tastes remotely as the one back home?And thanks for these lovely dishes!
Hi dearie, to get food that tastes like the ones back home, you'll have to cook them yourself and also use ingredients from home. I like to buy my ingredients from African stores(owned by Nigerians).
I tried the Gizzdodo recipe and it turned out very yummy which my hubby tagged as 'gbara-gbara'"cos i printed out the recipe and used it as a guide to do my cooking. Also introduced my friend and she commended on it.It was delicious. More kudos to u…..keep it up Nky. God bless ur home for us cos u r a blessing.
I'm so glad you all enjoyed it and what a funny husband you have there eh..''gbara-gbara'". Thank you so much for also introducing it to your friend, Hope to hear more from you and next time , send me pics too 🙂
Hmmm.delicious
thanks 🙂
Nky, I quite agree with you on the ease in your cooking steps. But I must commend your even more for the basic and a major contribution to the growing number of busy Nigerian youths in several parts of the world. Particularly Nigerian Youths that missed out learning how to cook from their parents while growing up for one reason or the other. They now have a second chance. This is saying a BIG "Thank You"on their behalf. You and your peers have filled up a steep void in our food culture.
Thanks for your lovely comments and kind words Chief, I'm so glad to be of help and will continue to do the best I can to promote our culture 🙂
I am 100% american. I am married to a Nigerian man. I cannot cook any Nigerian food. Please help!

I am 100% american and I am married to a Nigerian man. I cannot cook any Nigerian food. Please help!!
I'm getting married to a lovely nigerian man… I want to be able to cook the food he loves… Everything looks delicious but I have on question. I'm allergic to curry…is there anything that I could substitute the curry powder with? Without sacrificing taste.
Hi Kathryn, congrats on your upcoming marriage.You can leave out curry in almost all Nigerian recipes, but with Nigerian fried rice, curry is essential.Curry is actually a mixture of several spices, do you know which spice you are actually allergic to, here is a basic homemade curry recipe. You can omit the spice that you might be allergic to and make your own from scratch. 2 tablespoons whole cumin seeds, toasted 2 tablespoons whole cardamom seeds, toasted 2 tablespoons whole coriander seeds, toasted 1/4 cup ground turmeric 1 tablespoon dry mustard 1 teaspoon cayenne
You have some really helpful tips and the graphics are just awesome – makes you want to eat right off your screen. Could you please direct me to all your Nigerian banana recipes.

i am a new visitor to this site. I am overwhelmed. I love cooking and will be trying out some of the recipes.thanks
You're welcome dearie 🙂
Wonderful! wonderful!! recipes. Trust me to visit this site everyday as I am always at a loss of ideas and hubby is already complaining that my food is getting monotonous. Not easy combining 9 – 6 job with ensuring variety, is it?please, do an article on best ways to preserve good food and still get fresh taste. Should I "half cook" and freeze?
Thanks dearie, it is not easy combining 9 – 6 job with family , but it is ''do-able'' :). If you'll be cooking any meals with vegetables, such as Nigerian soups, make sure the veggies doesn't cook for too long, so that when you reheat it from the freezer, it doesn't taste bland or overcooked.The freezer is every woman's best friend, but don't half cook your food, try investing in a microwave(if you don't have one already) it's a great way to reheat food without over cooking it.
