Variety is said to be the spice of life, When it comes to culinary arts and cuisine my state is one and we are blessed, we are skilled in preparing meals and we know hundreds of ways of preparing a particular recipe, yeah this is one thing I love about Akwa Ibomites. For example, we have different ways to serve rice, we have fried rice, jellof rice, MTN rice, rice with pepper soup, Rice and stew rice and beans rice and ofaku just to mention but a few. The same goes for other recipes!

Oto Mboro (my traditional meal)

Oto Mboro is a traditional meal of the Ibibio and Efik people, This food is made of unripe grated banana or puree, the food is so delicious and nutritious. We normally cook it for a New nursing mother, and for a baby that is newly weaned, and for everyone! I prepared the above for my delightful baby girl and she likes it so much. The food is high in nutrients, and vitamins and it is a good source of calcium, We normally prepare it with vegetables and scent or curry leaves. I love this meal because it's a balanced diet and very low in calories.

WHAT ARE THE MAIN INGREDIENTS?

You see why I said that this meal is a balanced diet! Vitamins, minerals, protein, fat & oil, water and carbohydrates are contained in this food!

DO YOU CONSIDER THAT LOCAL GASTRONOMY IS WELL REPRESENTED IN YOUR TOWN? BECAUSE?

We don't just eat food to fill our stomachs it's a lifestyle, and consciousness it connects us for example immediately I perceived the special flavour of oto Mboro I know that an Ibibio person is the one preparing the meal, it represents our culture, yes by the mention of the meal name, many people will know that's our food. It's representing us well, it shows that we love eating healthy and we are healthy people!

I would like to invite my friends @mesola @beautiful12 and @shiftitamanna to take part in this contest.

El Oto Mboro se percibe, en verdad, como un plato muy nutritivo y pleno de sabores muy interesantes, como el plátano y los camarones, además tiene otros productos del mar y de carne vacuna. Por su potencial vitamínico debe ser que lo consumen las mujeres que acaban de dar a luz y los niños pequeños. Es muy bueno, por otra parte, que los pueblos se sientan identificados con sus platos tradicionales, que ostenten con orgullo la bandea especial de su gastronomía. Éxitos, amiga. Saludos...

Hola amiga un placer saludarte 🤗
El plato que hoy nos presentas se ve muy nutritivo, y es interesante eso de que el Oto Mboro se lo ofrecen a las mujeres que están lactando o a bebés destetados imagino esto por su cantidad de nutrientes.
Me alegra de que en tu país se alimentan de una manera saludable ✨
Me encantó leerte 🤗, saludos y bendiciones.

Hi hi friend I'm glad you visited me and engage meaningfully on my post, thank you so much for your sincere commendations I appreciate you and your good wishes too!

Seeing your cooking made my tongue water. It seems that your cooking is very beautiful. Children should always be given food as they like. It is undoubtedly wonderful that your child liked it. His mother's cooking is nectar for children. Thank you so much for sharing your home cooking with us. We are also interested in eating your cooking.
