Ekiti/ondo State Cuisine by Probz(m): 3:36am On Jun 21, 2018 |
Following on from another thread. cc.9jakool Let’s talk about indigenous foods from Eastern Yorubaland and Ekiti. I’ll go. Isapa soup Ondo Town okro soup (the standard version) Pounded yam and efo riro Pupuru Eweta (Marugbo) soup Ekuu Odede (Ondo-style ukpo ogede/plantain mai mai) That’s all I know off the top of my head. Anyone who knows about these cuisines can add more. How common are standard Yoruba foods (all red and green shades of ayamase, dodo, ...) in these parts? I know ayamase’s more associated with Egba/Ogun people. 1 Like |

@Probz Ondo, Ekiti and Ijebu have very colorful cuisines. Amuyale- This dish is from Ondo and it's grated water yams wrapped and steamed in plantain leaves Ojojo- Fried grated water yams from Ijebuland. It's commonly eaten for breakfast. Obe eyen/Obe eyin - Yoruba version of banga soup. Obe gbanunu- Aromatic soup made from a varierity of herbs like efirin from Ondo. Obe koowu- This is one the most "bizarre" soup to an average Nigerian. It's made from the seeds of the cotton plant. 1 Like |

9jakool:I think amuyale is also known as Ebiripo. I school in Ago iwoye, i remember laughing when the hawkers chant their wares, you hear something like Iboriiii o. Ikokore is also peculiar to the ijebus and they also have their way of cooking their egusi, if you are easily irritated you may nt be able to eat it but very sweet. |
