Jollof Rice! Very popular Nigerian food; almost every Nigerian can testify. Akara, made from black-eyed beans, is called a lot of names according to different tribes. A typical Nigerian should know it too. You may or may have not heard of foods like Onunu, Ojojo, and Epiti (I will stop here for now lest I spoil the fun). Here are some Nigerian foods you may just be learning about.

Onunu
This is a very interesting food from Rivers State. Its striking yellow color is enough to make you salivate. Onunu could be compared to our conventional eba, sem,o, or other swallows. The difference is that it is made by diligently mashing cooked, ripe plantain and boiled yam, then finished up with palm oil (adding pepper is optional). Onunu is often eaten with spicy fish pepper soup and would leave you licking your fingers for days.

Kwanya (cow brain stew)
Hold up! Don't get irked out yet! This is a wonder not for the faint of heart. Just as regular Nigerian stews are made from fish, meat, turkey, chicken, snails... Kwanya is a delicacy made from cow brains.

Esunsun
Mmm, I can taste the aroma just by writing about it. Called Aku by the Igbos, Esunsun by the Yorubas, Chinge by the Hausas, and Huu by the Tivs. The Winged Termite is always very available during the rainy season. A special trap of a single light source, broom, and a bucket of water would fetch you dinner. Seasoned with salt and fried in a dry pan, Esunsun will leave your kitchen bursting with flavor and your mouth wanting more. What is the Winged Termite called in your language?

Ojojo
A non-Yoruba person would most definitely mention Amala when asked to list Yoruba foods, but do you know Ojojo? Made by grating water yam, mixing up spices, then forming yam balls with your fingers and throwing them into hot oil, creating an oil splash and (with time) floating hot Ojojo!

Ridi
Popular amongst the Hausas, Ridi is a biscuit-like bar made from sesame seed with honey and sugar as a binder. Delicious right? Ridi could be served with Kunu or Zobo.

Ukwa (Breadfruit)
Tagged the most expensive food in the Igbo land, Ukwa depending on how prepared, could be eaten as a snack with coconut or as a main food garnished with vegetables, pepper, and lots of fish.

Ove
This is the food of the Ebira people. Just like moi-moi, Ove is a pudding, but it is made from a mixture of water, yam, and various spices, wrapped in banana leaves, and then steamed.

Well then... Have you ever eaten any of these meals, how does it taste?
