My selfie with yamarita

I really love this context because I'm such who doesn't play around when it comes to food, so as such, I love cooking. Believe me; any time I enters Kitchen, call me QUEEN DE CHEF. You will never be disappointed seeing the results. It might be simple but unique, eye appealing and very nutritious.

Here in Nigeria we have different types of recipe and I have tried 90% of our delicacies so far but I have not try Carribean rice before. The first I came around this recipe was in a classic weeding ceremony I was invited. It was actually jollof rice but when I taste, I realised that it was not just what I thought.

Days ago, I came across @ninapenda's post on which she explained everything I needed to know about Carribean rice. Click here to learn about it

Before this month end, I will definitely try this out and write a post about it.

Yamarita is one of the meals I enjoys most whether hot or cold. It is a meal that is made from yam, eggs and veggies. It is a balance meal which the yam in it is a good source of carbohydrates, eggs is protein while some of the veggies are rich in both vitamins and minerals.

Yummy yamarita 😋

The consumption of this meal in the right proportion aids in boosting our immune system and also helps in making an individual to gain weight.

Yamarita selects no time for it consumption. It is a simple but nutritious meals that can be consumed at anytime of the day, be it as breakfast, lunch or dinner and even whether cold or hot, it is still enjoyable.

The only meals that is cheap and can be easily prepared by any one is fried egg, fried plantains with coffee tea. In my country, virtually every thing is costly, still, with 5 steems you can have this delicious recipe. I always see that this particular meal always gladden my daughter's heart once it is ready and is set on dinning table.

Egg and ripe plantain🥰🥰

I believe that simplicity and a tantalising appearance of fried eggs and ripe plantain makes it a meal that always make me and my family members happy reclining at the table when sets.

Have you ever tasted Ekpang Nkukwo in your entire life? I know, many Nigerians have done that severally. But to you who have no opportunity to do so, it is high time you try it at least for once.

Ekpang Nkukwo is typically meal found in Akwa Ibom and cross river's in particular because of their culture. But Nigerians as a whole adopted the delicacy because of it's attractive look and good taste. It is a meal that is made from grated water yam and Coco yam mixed together and being rolled (or wrapped with)... in sliced pumpkin leafs and thereafter cook with assorted dry fish, meat, crey fish, periwinkles, seasoning cubes, salt, pepper, crayfish, scent leaf and a very quality red oil.

Hot Ekpang Nkukwo is served

The meals is beneficial for all ages because it has a lot of health benefits to our body. It also helps in food digestion, reduces bodily inflammation, very good for obese people because of it's high fibre contents. It also helps to regulate blood sugar levels and cardiovascular disease. So what are you waiting for? Try Ekpang Nkukwo and thanks me later.
