🍛🍛THE NIGERIAN SWALLOW AND PEPPER SOUP🌶️🍲

🎄🎄HAPPY CHRISTMAS & NEW YEAR CONTEST 2025/2026🎄🎄

I tried to arrange all the final photos from this competition in a table format and place them inside a single frame, so that everyone can view all the contestants’ final photos from just one post. During the final stage, many participants uploaded their contest photos, but because most of the images were quite large, it was taking more time to view them one after the other. That’s why I decided to bring all the final photos together in this table format. I hope this makes the photos look better and also makes it easier and more convenient for the OP to view them.

[Mr Reporter]

Firstly I would really want to say a very big well done to our Boss Mia Chioe each we all no him to be a well reputable member who has brought out time for this day to happen and for the special contest to be able to hold honestly speaking I really enjoyed my self while having to make such a hell of a meal.

The History of Ogbono seeds and it soup…

Ogbono soup,well it is a well popular Nigerian "draw beautiful soup" from the African Bush Mango seed, boasts deep roots in indigenous traditions, especially Southeast Nigeria Igbo but is enjoyed across ethnic groups Yoruba call it apon, Bini ogwi with varying origins debated, though it's a cherished, ancient forest product used for centuries in diverse Nigerian cuisines, symbolizing heritage and local bounty. And most people

Ogbono soup and it seed is a Nigerian dish made with ground dry ogbono seeds.It is made with considerable local variation. According to research by Chris Chinaka and J.C. Obiefuna, ogbono is an indigenous forest tree associated with plants classified as 'non-timber forest products. It goes by various indigenous names among Nigerians. The Common use of the word “ogbono” in general Nigerian parlance stems from the Igbo name for the word. Among the Nupe, it is called 'pekpeara', 'ogwi' in Bini, 'uyo' in Efik, and 'oro' or ‘apon’ in Yoruba. Although ogbono dika nut and ugiri, the Igbo name for bush-mango, are very similar and often regarded as equivalents, there is technically a distinction.

       Eba with Nsala soup

[Agbam]

I did this on Monday  but my phone had some technical issues that made me unavailable …..
So I’m just entering it now.

I made our native soup afang and eba ........ I'll add the pepper soup later.
This are the ingredients;


Water leaf
Afang (okashi leaf)
Palm oil
Kpomo
Meat
Stock fish
Smoked fish
Onions
Fresh pepper
Periwinkle
Seasoning cubes
Salt





PROCEDURE (for who might want to try)
Wash the assorted meat and put in a pot.
Add the chopped onions, seasoning cubes, salt, and a little water
Cook until the meat is tender.
Add washed stockfish and smoked fish and cook for a few more minutes.
Pour in palm oil and allow it to boil with the meat for about 5 minutes
This helps remove the raw taste of the oil and gives stock a sweet taste
Add onions and  pepper, stir well and allow to simmer for 3-5 minutes.
Add the chopped waterleaf first.
Stir and allow it to cook until the waterleaf releases and dries off most of its water.
Now add the shredded afang leaves.
Stir thoroughly to combine.
Add seasoning cubes and salt if necessary or to your preference.
Add periwinkle at this stage.
Stir and allow to simmer for 5-10 minutes on low heat.
Taste for seasoning and adjust if necessary.
Turn off the heat once the soup is well combined and slightly thick.
Food is ready to be served.

pounded yam and Egusi









I've never been a big fan of cooking until I went to college, where I had no choice but to prepare meals for myself. Since then, cooking has become a part of me because everyone enjoys delicious food. On this Christmas day, I'm serving my favorite dish, pounded yam with Egusi soup. The process was a little stressful because it takes a lot of energy to pound, but it's sweet to eat and people love pounded, but because of the cooking process, it's usually avoided.

  Ingredients     
- Egusi
-pepper
-onion
-oil
-spinach
-salt
- Maggi
-salt
-cow skin( Ponmo)
-yam for pounding.
-chicken

SOUP: IFE NSALA  
These are the Ingredients for Ife Nsala also known as White Soup:

Proteins
-Fresh catfish
-Chicken
-Intestines (Also called shaki) – thoroughly cleaned and pre-cooked
-Stockfish (okporoko)

Main Ingredients
-Fresh yam (for thickening)
-Ground uziza seeds
-Ground ehuru (calabash nutmeg)
-Ground crayfish
-Ogiri (it's Optional, but traditional)
-(To taste) fresh pepper
-Seasoning cubes
-(To taste) salt
- sliced  uziza leaf
-Water or meat stock


How to prepare Ife Nsala:

When you are preparing Ife Nsala you need to start cooking with stronger proteins. I actually season the chicken,  intestine, and stockfish and added a little bit of salt and seasoning cubes,  and boil everything for a while until it becomes tender.  Their stock is reserved because that is what I am using to make the soup. I will keep the catfish aside and add it later since it gets soft quickly.

I then boil fresh yam in a separate pot,  then pound it to a smooth paste, because that's what I am using to thicken the soup. I then added the yam paste into the boiling stock until I have a light, smooth consistency.  I then add the ground uziza, ehuru, crayfish, pepper, and ogiri to the soup and that gives Nsala its distinct aroma and flavor. I carefully place the catfish into the soup and let it simmer for a bit without stirring it,  so i don't scatter the fish.

Final stage,  I will then sliced the uziza leaf and add it into the pot, and the soup is adjusted with a little bit of salt and seasoning.  You'll then have a light-color,  aromatic and spicy traditional soup and it's best served  when it's still hot with pounded yam.

Please note:  Nsala soup it actually a traditionally soup that does not use palm oil.

   


Final result:


Plantain  Pepper  Soup

Ingredients

Chicken
Unripe Plantain
Scent Leaves
Pepper Soup Spice
Ground Crayfish
Fresh Pepper
Maggi
Salt


To start you need to cut your chicken into pieces and wash it into your pot,  then put your pot in the gas and boil the chicken with the salt, maggi, and pepper soup spice until the chicken is soft.  Next add the unripe plantain that you slice and let it boil until it is soft. Then,  add the ground crayfish and whole pepper,  and let the pepper soup boil for a little while.  Then add the your scent leaf, test to check if the seasoning is ok, and serve hot.
