She's a bad mama jama! Can't thank you enough for how you got me into the kitchen, cooking delicious Ghanaian dishes after the passing of my mother. As a British born Ghana girl, I have tested these dishes on my most skilled culinary relatives and had their approval, hands down every time! Stay blessed sis! xx
Beverly Owusu, yay, I’m so glad you tried this recipe with egusi! I love that you gave the egusi a shot and found it was worth the shot sis! Thank you for the feedback 😘😘😘
I have watched a lot of egusi cooked on TH-cam but this is definitely the best ever. Look soooooo deliciously well made. Thanks a lot for the video. You are the best first lady thanks
@@NanaabasKitchen thank you too I am actually standing in my kitchen right now making your egusi soup can't wait to feel the deliciously delicious recipes
Awwww how exciting it is to be communicating with you in real-time! I can’t wait to hear about the outcome. Thank you for trying the recipe! If you’re on Facebook, you my visit and join “Chop time, yes Friend” an interactive group I created for you to post your food related short videos and photos, and I’ll be so thrilled to see your Egusi soup dish there 🙏🏾💕
@@NanaabasKitchen Awwwwww I didn't know you replied I was busy cooking and just finished now. So sorry am not on Facebook I just took a picture of my egusi with your recipe. Is soòoooooo delicious I wish I could post the pic here am going to find a way to post the pics
@nanaaba'skitchen I tried this and it tastes soooooo good. My first time making this, and fufu. But, fufu didn't come out so smooth. I omit the mackrel and added smoke fish. Also omit the octopus. Yum yum yum yum
I love that you tweaked the recipe to fit your preferences in terms of choice of ingredients! Guess what? Now you have your own recipe my dear!!!! Thank you for returning with feedback!! I truly appreciate it! What fufu recipe did you use dear? Perhaps I can help figure out/ or prevent what went wrong next time. Thank you!!😘
@@NanaabasKitchen thank you... I used the unripened plantains. Boiled it, and used the potato masher to mash. Then I used my spatula to mix and continued to try smoothing. Boy, my whole arm was in pain. I think I will blend it right out next time, then put in the pot. Any tips? And feed back?
Thanks for the feedback! Please follow the recipe as shown in the video, it’s a lot easier to blend your raw ingredients and cook in a pot following the recipe shown in this video👉🏾 th-cam.com/video/xYjUo2qqAMs/w-d-xo.html
Where do you live. I wish I could have you actually make this for me. I really need to learn how to cook the African dishes because I'm American but my husband is Nigerian. I want to surprise him when he get here with me. But it's hard to find the ingredients here in the US. I love how you cook your dishes because I can tell you are a very neat and clean person. Is it better to have a cast iron pot for cooking
I live in Arizona. I’m fortunate to have several stores here that stock the fresh and authentic ingredients I use in my cooking! It’s such a blessing! I agree with you on the cast iron pot! I hope my channel helps you to learn how to cook authentic African dishes for you sweetheart! Let me know if there’s a dish/dishes you’d like me to present for more learning opportunities dear! Glad to help anyway I can😘
Nanaaba, this look delicious😋. I am watching at a time when my tummy is devoid of food😆. If only I can dish out my own portion. By the way can I ask where I can get that pot- it's beautiful. Your response regarding the pot will be most appreciated. Thanks for video. Great job as always.
Aminata Kamara, thank you for your kind words! It’s a cast iron port from world market. Please visit their website or one of their stores near you! They have amazing stuff! Thanks again!
Awwwww! Thank you so much for visiting, and for your encouraging words! I’m over-joyed and very humbled sis! Much more love right back at you😘 you made my day! My warmest regards to the entire OMB crew😘😘😘

I thank God for you, you love and support is deeply appreciated! Thank you for your very kind and encouraging words! 😘😘😘😘! At times, I read your comments when I need a little uplifting! 🙏🏾🙏🏾🙏🏾 The world needs people like you in it!!!!!
Okay so I have Ugu mixed into my egusi and its 10:56pm….when will this leaf soften?🥺😩 If I knew spinach was an option, I could be fed, bathed and asleep by now😭
I notice there's no ground crayfish here, is the smoked shrimp used instead for this recipe? When I make Nigerian food I often find the fish taste overpowers from the crayfish (for someone not used to it). Should I reduce the smoked prawns if that's the case?
I have never had African food and I want so much to try it. But the ingredients are not stuff I am familiar with. I did not that egusi was pumpkin seeds, and was so glad and though ,oh I can try this one. Then I saw iru/ locust bean. I have no idea what this is. Please, is there a substitute. I want to try at least 1 African dish. And can palm oil be substituted too?
CP, thank you for your feedback. Please substitute locust beans with 1 teaspoon meso paste, or 1 teaspoon fish sauce, And you may certainly substitute palm oil with virgin coconut oil. I hope this helps! Thanks again 🙏🏾💕
If you live close to a Mexican store or a Whole Foods store, you can find the green egusi I showed in the video (they’re called papitas at the stores ( also known as pumpkin pumpkin seeds) they’re readily available in most stores. Please ask for pumpkin seeds. Dawadawa is available in powder form on amazon.com. Please let me know if this helps.
Dorcas dear! Thank you soooo much and welcome to My Channel! I’ll email you soon dear. We’ll connect when I’m in Ghana for some of your coconut oil, Shea butter, etc! 🙏🏾😘
