Lol you can do it, it’s worth the stress

[@Usamantha__22]

Sorry ma please one last question can I also add banga stick or just the palm kernels only?

[@emjayscorner1]

Sorry I don’t understand what you mean by banga stick… just follow the same process in the video

Just like that, without seasoning the icefish

What is the essence of seasoning the ice fish separately

Can one add red oil again?

[@chimdimmablessing3847]

No not at all

It’s already too oily, there’ll be no need for that

[@vickyohams3464]

Plastic contact with hot food or too long cold food creats health hazard

Nigerians don't use tomatoes in soups I wonder why!! Ghanaians use tomatoes in every soup of stew

[@emjayscorner1]

I don’t know how true that is… every country has their culture which is unique to them, we don’t have to understand it we just need to respect it… Thanks for watching ❤️

[@nikissnwabueze]

Stockfish is not needed in ofeakwu that stew is meant to be natural ok

[@emjayscorner1]

What is so unnatural about stockfish? Maybe you should try adding it when next you cook ofe akwu🙂

[@reginanwegbe6906]

Stockfish na artificial teacher no all....abi na u make d stockfish na dats y it's not natural

[@nanas.recipes_]

@@reginanwegbe6906 cooking is about being creative so if she decides to put stockfish, that’s what she wants.

[@nanas.recipes_]

Cooking is a creative art. She can add stock fish and whatever she deems fit. Try different things when cooking.

[@emechebecomfort9811]

We put stock fish in our own

[@benedictaolatokunbo5417]

It is soup you prepared not stew.

[@emjayscorner1]

Okay Ma❤️

[@omailtheresia]

Why are you chefs in Nigeria always using goats meat, no cow meat. Or lamb.

[@emjayscorner1]

I used both goat and cow meat, lamb meat is not common in Nigerian markets… Thanks for watching ❤️
