Hello everyone, am happy to participate in this contest. My favorite hobby is reading, writing and cooking. Well let me display my talent. I love cooking alot. Infact, in school I scored A1 in food & nutrition Well here is what I want to prepare

This is called African salad .... It is also known as Abacha. It is a food originated from the Igbo's in the eastern region of Nigeria. It is commonly eaten as lunch but can be virtually taken anytime you need it.
Here are the ingredients used in the preparation of African salad 🥗.

Palm oil	Maggi
Utasi leaf	Salt
Fish	Meat
Onion	pepper 🌶️
Crayfish	Ugba

This is Abacha In it dried form
If possible, buy the dried form of Abacha. But if you can't find it in the vicinity that you are leaving it is possible to do it at home. Just get some cassava, boil it, slice t them wash out the starch. If you wish you can dry it. But it is sweeter when it is fresh.
Here are the procedure for preparing African salad
