- Hello, everyone! In this episode I show you how to make Ndole. Ndole is the traditional meal of the Douala people of Cameroon. It consists of blanched blended groundnuts, simmered with green leafy vegetables. It is oniony, hearty and nutty. It serves as a great side to boiled plantains, white yam and even rice. Enjoy!
You can find the written visual recipe here: www.preciouscore.com/2016/02/h...

Hello Precious, I am an elementary French teacher in the U.S., and I used your videos to make ndolé, cornchaff, and gateau. My students watched the videos, and we all ate the dishes at our school's International Festival. A native of Cameroon ate our Cameroonian dishes with us and was overjoyed! Thank you for posting these videos.
Elizabeth Brandon this makes me so happy! Thank you for coming back to let me know. Glad you enjoyed the Ndole, Gateau and Cornchaff.
You take me way back to the early 1980s- I was in Douala a few times and ate Ndole (with plantains) and Miondo at Hotel Le Nde (not sure of the spelling now) - the best food I ever ate in a foreign country. Washed it all down with 33 Export - Cameroon rocks! Thanks for the video!!

Thanks for all the videos Precious. Really appreciate all of them.
Please could you make a video on how to make Okomobong.
Lots of love from South Africa ❤️
One thing I enjoy about Cameroon cuisine is that you’re not afraid to use different starches for example fufu, gari, green plantain, potatoes, yam, even my tante use acorn squash.
My mum's fave dish. Thank you for the recipe
You're welcome, Stephanie.
Looks awesome! I am definitely trying it today because "Oyibo" can't cook :)

Hi precious, thanks for this. Have been looking forward to preparing this particular delicacy myself, you just made it easier for me. Pls where can I get the small blender you used to blend the groundnut and ginger
great one Mrs precious . good presentation good explanation perfect timing . 101% good .
Thanks so much!
I really love your videos Precious :)
Thank you very much, I've learned a lot from your videos
You are welcome, dear.
is there any reason for adding spinach? and doesn't the ndole gets very soft the next day because of the spinach?
What are you mixing the shrimp with?
To me, the best ndolè is the balance between the bitterness of the leaves, the sweetness of the groundnuts soup(better if lightly browned ) and the flavour added by the shrimps and the meat. Finger licking video !!
Delicious dish 😋
Hi dear In the beginning you didn't show how you boiled the ground nut. How exactly did you boil it? Just put in the pot and boiled with water? Also what is I how did you prepare the marinade where you put the shrimp?
Precious great work big mami. When I watch you I feel hungry! All these women who go about doing sequi should watch you before attempting anything. The other day one of dem wan kill me witti san san for inside ndole
Thanks for your kind words, dear.
Amazing. Thank you

You are welcome, dear.

is there more spinat than ndolè?
Aunty precious thanks for the ndole recipe, pls how long should the groundnut be cooked to prevent it from purging
Hi Linda, cook it for at least 20 minutes while stirring from time to time.
How long do you boil the groundnuts?
Good jobs my dear be blessed
I always tell me friends the key to Ndole is garlic, ginger and onion. Thumbs up Precious kitchen I'm a big fan. One request can u make a video on how to prepare Kwacoco😊
Sure dear. I will do Kwacoco next.
Precious Kitchen hello! I am a New subscriber! I just moved to the US I was wondering if you also live in the US? Because I don't know where to find ndolè leafs here. I only see spinach 😭
Hi Rose, welcome to the US! I buy Ndole (dried bitterleaf) from an African store here. Check the African stores in your area.
And green pepper
The original Ndole needs no ginger ...Nowadays people add tomatoes, ginger and whatever they want if they find it more interesting
I enjoyed your video, nice work
From Douala
Fab ❤
Thank you for this tutorial! Any recommendation how to make this recipe for two?
Crystal Grace Ofori for 2 make half of the recipe. A link to the full recipe with all measurements is in the description box of the video.
Do u have a restaurant?
where do you get the green leaf not spinach.... will try and cook this for bae...he loves it but I'm not from his country so don't know how it's done or where to get it. thanks.
Hi T, the other leaf is called, "btterleaf". You can get it from an African store or from the African food isle of Asian stores.
I’m new here but I love what I see
God bless u
Great video! What's the difference between crayfish and crayfish seasoning from the recipe on your blog?
Crayfish is the dried fish itself while crayfish seasoning is a crayfish flavoured seasoning cube (Maggi).
You are Good at what you do. Just Be Yourself in your videos.
I have a concern; Why pour away the water in which both leaves were boiled. Are we not missing on their nutriments by so doing ?!
Nice
Hello, I have a question, please can you tell me which model of blender you use?
Martina Daniela Manuel I use Ninja. Please check for it on eBay.
YES. Thank you!
Where did you buy the bitter leaf and crayfish please?
From an African store.
A year late, but I hope someone answers before I have to cook this. Can you use sweet bitter leaves?
Yes you can.
Very simple
your make-up is perfect by the way!
Morgan Nixon thanks dear.
no problem!
Hello precious, could you pls send me a recipe of your oven baked fish? Thanks
Hi Thank you for sharing sister. I was wondering are you from Cameroon or did you just know about ndole from someone else?
Hi Zahra, I'm from Cameroon.
Good job. You look familiar. Have you worked in Buea before.
sandy peters I've lived in Buea.
Hahahaha auto subtitle calls it dollar. Thanks for sharing I pick out most ofwhat u were saying from the subtitles. Way to go.
Hahaha dollar?! I no go blame them. Thanks for watching, sis! Glad to know about the subtitles.
Precious Kitchen très bonne cuisine j ai besoin d acheté le même modèle de ton blender ça coûte combien et se vend où ?
mum.pls is spinach obligated to use?
No. The original recipe itself doesn't include spinach.
so I tried this but used too much water. Looks awesome but watery. Lesson learnt. Thanks for the recipe. Writing from Bamenda
🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣 assail bro
Fun fact, in Gabon we use ndoleh leaves for system cleansing. We purge with the soak water of the leaves thru the anus. Parents make sure they do it to the children after the long vacation just before they resume school. However those who can cook it eat it.
Same in Cameroon
hello thanks for sharing this video , but wish to know the substance you mixes with the pounds
Michael mayilla sorry I don't understand your question. Please explain what you mean by substance mixed with the pounds.
I guess he/she meant the prawns (shrimp) that u added to the grind onions, garlic and ginger
Wow
my boyfriend is Cameroonian, I will try to cook this for him. thanks for your video
You are welcome, dear.
Can ndole be cooked only with Spinish?
Yes it can
THANKS YOU GOODNESS 🌟 AMAZING PRECIOUS ❤️🖤💚🤎 FAMILY DAPHNE COTTON ALWAYS 💜,
Groundnut is peanut? I am asian and married to camerronian i am having hard time with recepe
Yes, groundnut is peanut. It is called groundnut in Cameroon. Let me know if you have other questions.
Hello precious, I'm trying to cook ndolè tonight and I could not find the djansang here in New Jersey to boil it with the ndolè leafs to reduce the bitterness, will the baking soda work the same?
Hi Rose Line, baking soda is perfect. We normally use "kanwa" (limestone) not "djansang".
Oh yes it is kanwa not djansang Since I left Cameroon for 2 years I'm confused 😂😅
Thx I will use baking soda and hopefully it will not taste as bitter as it tastes now. I'll let you know how it turned out! :)
Precious Kitchen just to update you, baking soda worked very well ! Although I rinsed the bitter leaves 5 times it helped a lot! Thx for the recipe !
I'm waiting for you to show us a recipe of koki :-)
High five, dear!! So glad to hear that it turned out well.
Hi...I love this video... please can someone use fried groudnuts ?
You can but the taste will be different.
No
I nova see okongobong ohooo
That Was Great Cooking There But I DID NOT SEE YOU PUT IN PEPPER In Your POT. What Happens To PEPPER.
can you use Any other greens other than spinach?
Pamela Ibekwe-Uche you could use bitterleaf.
Precious Kitchen i love this dish
Does this soup taste bitter afterwards cos of the bitter leaf?
worship850 not really dear. There's a hint of bitterness in there but it's not overwhelming.
Precious Kitchen ok. Thanks. I will try it out
Would you like to introduce my poulet DG video? I filmed it in Bulu.
Kid Chef sure. Send an email with details to precious@preciouscore.com
hello, can I just use frozen spinach instead that and the bitter leaf? I loved ndole the very first time I tried it. thank you. if you can reply as soon as possible. want to cook it this weekend
Hi Olive, you could just use frozen spinach. That works well.
tumbs up, u go girl
Enoh Glory-Ida thanks sis!
Me likes food:
Still me can’t cook😂
😋😋😋😋😋
Wow you got me salivation but I'll prefer it with just bitter leaves
Don't you "devein" the shrimp?
These kids should be helping mommy yeah? Not just commenting in the back ground ;) ;) Am trying the recipe right now with spinach only, do not have bitter leaves or bitali ;) I hope i succeed. I am craving for it and she is not there.
TrésorS YYY hahaha I know right. It could work well with just spinach. Keeping my fingers crossed for you!
I was thinking the same thing about the girls, especially your oldest daughter. I am starting to teach my 9 year old granddaughter to cook and it is a lot of fun. I think people would enjoy watching your little ones awaken to the joy of cooking with their Mom. (Btw, I'm African American and just learning about the food of my heritage. I love your recipes and the way you love cooking. Thank you, Precious!)
