Abeg, pound the yam and eat it with correct afang soup. That in my opinion is the best way to eat yam anytime anyday |

Yam with Spiced Porridge Sauce: Sauce Ingredients: Yam, salt, pepper, vegetables (Pumpkin or Green) seasoning cube (ie: maggi or knorr, etc), palm oil, onions, garlic, ginger and (stock fish or ice fish or meat) Boil the yam, wash cut and put the vegetables in boiling yam, add salt, pepper. Cut and add fresh garlic, ginger fish/meat. Add seasoning and palm oil as appropriate. let the volume of water be such that it very low when the preparation is done. When yam is very soft, bring it down and mesh the yam - your onions sauce is ready Can be eaten with Yam or Rice Yam & Goat Meat Pepper Soup: Boil the meat add pepper, salt, onion, garlic and a sachet of indomie flavour, boil till done Add Scent Leaf (Calabar calls it Ntong), fresh pepper and boil till it becomes pepper soup Enjoy it with your Yam Yam & Groundnut Sauce: Grind/blend 1 cup of groundnut with the red peel. Boil meat till done. Fry oil - just as in making stew, then add onions, Mix the grounded groundnut in water with sliced onions, salt, pepper, maggi, ice fish - if you like add ginger &/or garlic to boost scent - make the preparation thick.

aysometin: If your husband t be is from Delta, i'm sure he'll prefer it the way Delta prepare theirs. Hear's the ingredient. Potash Native salt (it looks almost like potash) Native Starch or yam to thicken Dry fish/Meat/Snail (whichever u prefer) Dry fish is a must Periwinkle Palm Oil Crayfish Pepper (preferably dried) Salt and seasoning Note: If you are preparing in the Delta way, you do not need to add tomatoes *Cook meat with seasoning (Maggie etc, do not use curry & thyme) add the fish to steam a little, after washing washing properly with salt. *Add palm oil into the boiling water ( you can choose to drain the meet and fish out of the cooked sauce water or leave it in,.which ever way, no qualms) *Grind the potash and add to the boiling water while stirring, at this time it mite foam a little, just turn the heat down low *Wait for about five minutes, then add a little starch (starch should be dissolved in water like u do when preparing pap) Stir till its smooth, then wait for another five to ten minutes *Then add paper to your taste, Maggie and crayfish *Add periwinkle after washing properly, probably in salt and warm water. The periwinkle should be the last item you add *Allow to cook for like ten minutes and voila, you Owo soup is ready. *NOTE: Allow to cool off very well before covering, else it mite dissolve and become watery |

Try yams with beans you will wish to have the same the combination the whole year but you need frequent de-worming and visits to the clinic. Besides, you have to get your own care because gassing for others wont be a got thing since you can not avoid it when you take them. |

Re: What Do You Eat With Yam? by baby4u2(f): 8:05pm On Sep 01, 2011 |
Ever tried this sauce. 1. Onion sauce, Fast and easy: Just hit a little oil, put a lot of onions in the oil add maggie or salt to tasteeeeeeeee not to consume the taste oh. Stir fry until the onions are soft not burnt. Enjoy it with boiled yam. 2. Tomatoes sauce: Cut tomatoes, onions, hot fresh pepper and red bell pepper. Hit oil, and add your cut fresh t, h, p, r into the oil, add maggie, curry and any other spice you think you may like, but I suggest you keep it simple. Stir fry, taste to see if it is right, and enjoy with boiled yam or fried yam. 3. One way to eat yam again, is to boil it with sugar. Taste sweet. 4. Another way is to boil the yam, let it stand out for about 5mins, then fry it. It has a better taste that way. 5. Eat boiled yam with vegetable oil and salt or palm oil (although i dont like the palm oil) 6. Fried egg, with medemede added to the egg is better with boiled yam. Fried yam is better with stewwww. Anyway this are just my eating habits with yam. I hungry now. |

Yam can be boiled with sugar, or sugar and salt together. Any way you want it. Or just plain salt. |
