Abacha is one of the most delicious Nigerian dish you will find in the eastern part of Nigeria. This food is a mixture of processed cassava, vegetable, ugba, utazi, garden egg, fish, goat meat, Cameroon pepper, crayfish & onion.
For our love of creating exciting content for your consumption, we bring you Abacha on food arena today with Warripikin.
Warripikin has taken to another part of Lagos to locate the next cook for the abacha quest and he found Miss Odinaka, the lady who makes the delicious Abacha as seen in the video. Odinaka is an open lady who was really helpful and made our filming much more easier as she explained and told us everything that we needed to know.
She took us through the process of cutting the cassava, washing it till clean and also mentioned that, the water used to clean shouldn’t be thrown away, as starch can be derived from it when it settles.
“If you are trying to prove you can slice the cassava, the slicer will cut you”, she said.
From slicing, it was moved from boiling, cooling and extra time to wash more to wash away excess acidity and starch. During the process of continuous preparation where he saw “Ugba” while discussing with Odinaka, he asked her what it is used for and how it can consumed. Coincidently, Warripikin meet Odinaka’s mother, it struck him to ask what the ugba can be used for apart from being a part of Abacha spice and she said it can be used as part of the bridal items in the eastern part of Nigeria.
It went on to the slicing of vegetable, frying pepper, fish, meat, dicing the onion, and other means necessary. Take your time to watch this video and feel free to salivate.

Wow this Odinaka is so hard working.
Love from Uganda
I remember eating this salad/abacha for the first time when I visited Nigeria. It's a delicious and nutritious meal to have for lunch. God bless the hands that took time to prepare it.
These ladies are hardworking, may the good Lord continue to bless your hustle.
When I was in Nigeria some 8 months back, I bought Abacha with fish, kpomo all ingredients 250 naira. Prize also depends the location. Good job Odinaka

I'm from the Philippines.. and i must say... very very impressive. Hard work and effort makes food complete and very delicious. What a beautiful family.
Nasa lupa yun karne habang hinihiwa parang hindi tama ✌️
NO PLACE LIKE HOME, I MISS SUCH MEAL AND ACTIVITIES, I JUST PRAY SOME DAY OUR COUNTRY WILL BE AN ENABLING ENVIRONMENT FOR US ALL..
Amen
These people work pretty hard...no laziness here.
But that's the system in which they live.
I’m from America and I love African food and my dream is to be in Lagos
i hope you paid your host alittle extra dash for her hard work she worked very hard for your audience
Bros.. That one na normal tin dey do na... They just cooking the way we was brought up... not all houses have stoves
@@olufemiyusuf3073 well just because it is normal doesn't mean it isn't hard work
She gets free advertisement
And i almost cried watching all that effort.... And energy...ooo African s are hard working
Odinaka is so beautiful i love her cheek bones and smile not to mention her skin is glowing!
lona Bennette she absolutes gorgeousness
She’s so fit too, lifting things with ease
Yes she is cute even wit all d cooking stress she still looks gud
lona Bennette and ass ❤️
@@amexem612 +a ko
I'll be living in nigeria for at least a year soon and I CAN'T WAIT to try naija fooood!!!
So how was it ?
This is REAL hard work; heavy lifting, heat etc. Kudos to the ladies. May God continue to reward your hard work.
That abacha looks yummy. I am from phillippines. I ended up here by searching food vlogs. Nice vid though..
This episode kept me glued to my seat throughout, love the insight into 'Abacha and how it's painstakingly prepared, mixed, cooked and served by those ladies, beautiful, props to Batta Box for going full out and sharing these experiences which helps me learn more pertaining African food. Nigerian cuisine is so vibrant, rich in taste and straight simply amazing, my delving into it has only been Jollof rice - a pity. Love Nigeria :)
Aww Thnx
Thank you!
The amount of effort put into that dish is just unbelievable, and all the tastes and the textures packed in it during the process of making... Just amazing - I wish I could visit West Africa someday, Ghana, Nigeria, and Mali dear god I hope!!
I wish so hard that I could get Nigerian food in Denmark! Egusi and fufu changed my life when I ate it the first time! I originally live in Norway but have moved to Denmark and have lived there for 8 years. Here I can get some Etiopian food, bur what I want is Nigerian food. Thank you battabox for showing me your food culture! One day I will have enough money to travel to Nigeria and eat, see and experience everything your country have to offer. The people seems so loving and they cook with their hearts❤️ Much love from a Vietnamese guy in Denmark!
AZN Viking hi! My husband and I run a local kitchen in my country Nigeria, we could make your dreams come through if you would send us an invite to come start an African kitchen in your country! We would be happy to spread our food branch to your country!
Too much work just to eat one food. I will continue buying it outside to eat. Far too cheaper than the price its been sold. It should be the most expensive food to buy in Nigeria, too many processes . Kudos to odinaka Strong lady.
It's beneficial if you have a large family
See u . Lazy younth😀😀
When your in the US ✌🏾😗
No food in Nigeria involves too much work. It's just our nature to eat healthy. We don't see it as hardwork lol
Geez, you need to chill! Most vendors in Nigeria don't make Abacha like this. They purchase the cassava when it's already sliced and dried then they continue with the cooking process.
Odinaka,you are a black beautiful energetic lady
God bless u n your family IJn,Amen
I pray for u Odinaka,that u will open your own restaurant IJn,Amen
Jehovah will establish in a big way.IJn,Amen
Shalom
PrincessHephzibah Alabi these people need money not religion and superstition. This is why we black people are so far behind the other races of people.
The yellow plate is beautiful.
Cassava is one of God's many blessings to mankind.
Lovely video.
Its more nutritional to eat Abacha than going to one fast food . I recommend it for pregnant women, you will never be ask to donate blood during delivery. Thumbs up to the family that work as a team to achieve all that!!
Am talking from experience
Esther Oranye what does this have to do with donating blood?
John O
Lol I think she meant receiving blood. As in low iron levels causing anaemia since the food is rich in iron.
Sharon Afia that's what I thought. Cause if anything pregnant women need iron. Never heard of pregnant women giving blood.
This is hard work.
These ladies are the reason why their mother is still into this business,left for the mother she can't do this work all by her self.
God bless you beautiful ladies.
I love the way the r washing every thing so nice love nagerian food all the way from Congo I got nagerian friend teaching me all there food
Such a hard working family. God bless them
19:49 what she is doing is similar to what we mexicans do to make our chiles and salsas. In mexico its called a molcajete 😍 I love learning about Nigerians 😍

I love Mexican street food
Come down you fetishing weirdo
barbieyoo meta shut up, not everyone is fetishizing.
Mexican food is the best
woow..this so so natural and home made ..here we customize our nigerian food at times...like baking soda for akanwu as aunty flo showed us.......this people needs to start shipping abacha internationally oo..lolz...i'm craving for some already...
The hustle is real, give this woman 5 years she will be living in her own duplex. I have seen women like her growing up in Enugu, strong, determined, hardworking and fiercely independent.. lovely Abacha but if you want to chop the authentic Abacha from its origin, start from Achi in Enugu state then stop at Udi. Na dem own this food..I dey miss home mehn😊
Eke N 042 for life
My mum’s from udi in Enugu and the abacha is to die for.
I know no doubt about Enugu people eating abacha all the time but to be sincere they make it so dry without all of this especially ugba by the side.. and also there abacha looks as if no much red oil in it, but imo state makes abacha just they way it looks in this video and big men order more for different occasions. Thank you
I like their hygienic consciousness even in such environment. At least I didn't notice any flies there. Good job Odinaka!
Anatune Okwy
Name a place where flies do not live?
Anatune Okwy Lots of flies in London where I live in the summer buzzing around the butchers , cakes farmers markets you name it
Those old colonial stereotypes about the West being clean and Africa not London is actually a dirty place despite its comprehensive refuse collection
@@Omega1st greenland, it a frozen part of the world i dont think can survive in the cold
@@tentailmadara2500 Wrong The (fly) Muscidae is in Greenland.
Let the flies live in peace. They only have a life span of 2 weeks aprox. gosh 😂 you're even hating on flies?
For some weird reason when the prepared Abacha arrived, there was this strong smell of good food that came out of nowhere. I looked around to see if someone around me had just brought in food, but it was just my imagination. I watched the entire video and was waiting in anticipation of him eating Ugba, but sadly he didn't.
Kudos to the family. Such hard work and they did it with such diligence. ❤👏❤👏❤
But Warri Pikin you sure say that plate na only N50? The fish alone is worth more than N50 not to talk of the ponmo and the rest. At least I hope they sell it for more than N50.
Flo I agree with you. That food is worth more than N50. Also kudos to the family too.
Chibuike Ulasi follow me see o!
Warri pickin just assume the price by himself. 50 naira can not buy snacks in Nigeria.
All Nigerian Recipes nah so dis food pass #50,maybe nah only d abacha be #50..no pomo and fish inside
All Nigerian Recipes it can't be warri pikin nor sabi the price it should be more than 50Naira that plate of abacha should be around 300 to 500Naira
God bless Africa.. And our mothers for their lovely care..
Love from Korea.
This food reminds me of Korean foods.
They also take fuckload of time and effort to make one dish.
Abacha looks so tasty
Waooo I really miss this lovely food 🍲, I can wait for God to bless me so that I can go back 🔙 to Nigeria 🇳🇬 and eat it, again and again.
The initial process of getting the abacha done is very tedious but afterwards it gets dried up and sold in that way. Whenever you want to eat abacha, you soak the dried one for some minutes and it gets soft. Then you go ahead and prepare it. I love this! Good job for showing the eastern part of Nigeria. Odinaka you re too much!
Odinaka looked uncomfortable at the beginning but it seemed as the day went on she opened up a lot more.
She's camera shy
Abeg all my Nigerian brothers outside Pls marry this woman and you'll eat healthy for the rest of your life and save her from this hard job too bad I be woman I for marry her. But when I visit LAGOS I'll definitely patronize her. Xoxo love from NewYork
Sexy Damsel yeah she could use some help to make process easier on her body, some kitchen tools stoves maybe an investment to fix up the place
I don't think it's healthy, but I wish somebody takes her out of there and opens a restaurant so we can taste what she's making.
Sexy Damsel lol
Nor be small work ooo
The love they put into making the salad... so much love
Great video bro
Cameroon pepe 👍♥️am Cameroonian and I love this video. With all the hard work the girl was still very humorous. I will try this recipe
Haitian and Africans are definitely family real talk!!!
ELIPOUL real talk. The fufu and the sauce...🙆
As if that was ever a question 😒 se afrikan nou ye meme manger meme tradition
Amennn
ELIPOUL and what about Black people in the rest of the Americas Including Belize, Honduras, Jamaica,Trinidad, Suriname and many parts of Southern USA? The foods are similar. People cook Fufu in the Caribbean, also Black eye peas and rice which is a traditional "New Year's Day" meal, with black-eyed peas, ham hock, and pepper sauce the southern USA style for that day.
Omega1st don't forget our black (Afro Mexican's) brothers & sister's in Mexico 🇲🇽🇲🇽🇲🇽
What a beautiful, beautiful black lady is this woman!!!!! (I am a woman from Austria with blond hair and blue eyes- i tell this, because i want to show that not only man are thinking like this!!) So this young lady is such a natural beauty!!!
Great taste ..Nigerian Food the best💟💟💟
Looooool her expression when she was describing the ugba is sooooo cool
Wow, first time I'm seeing Abacha prepared from scratch and in large quantity. Thank you Battabox
Wow, so it takes this hardwork to prepare abacha? Odinaka surely is a hardworking Nigerian woman. There's dignity in labour.
Love to the family from Barbados west Indies yummy
Odinaka is a very productive strong hard working woman ...I applauded all these women...I hope they are paid well 🇨🇦❤️🙏🏽🌹
I'm not familiar with those foods, but I think it's too cheap for such hard work. They also need bigger pots. Ya'll are very hard working young ladies, may GOD bless ya'll. Mom, you deserve a holiday.💝💝💝💜💜💜
I really like the lady. So hardworking 🙌🙌🙌
The lady in red is SOOOO BEAUTIFUL!
they're so hardworking. Making that quantity of abacha is not easy at all. God bless them.
Africa my people.. Nigeria my home.. So proud of my family.... Great job
she worked so hard preping that food,thumbs up girl.
Looks delicious, hard working lady.respect. brilliant 😘
Love from Kerala-south India.We eat Cassava almost everyday.But our way of cooking is different.
Greetings from Tamil Nadu- South India
cassava is also called yucca for people from south america (colombia) and its freaking delicious... yucca farmers in colombia guard the farm with a loaded gun
why🤔🤔🙄, it very easy to grow in Nigeria because I once was helping my parent grow it
Wow it's that good....I would love to make it in the States
Nigerian women got the strength to cook as long I can't remember each day,we got good strength for cooking in my country Nigeria you must cook for your huaband before getting from work as a good wife Am sure any woman from Nigeria will make a good cook any where around the world..sponsorships is what most of us need.
Do you enjoy Abacha?? 😍

I ate this everyday back in Nigeria cos it's one of my favorite local dishes. And this video has spurred me on to prepare the one I left on my kitchen cabinet for a while now. Btw, this young lady and her family are really hardworking, go through this whole process with so much passion and love for what they do. I wish them all the best...and that whole plate for #50? Wow!
That's amazing... I love Nigerian people and culture... love your food.. greeting from Turkmenistan
i dont know how i got to the nigerian cooking side of youtube, but i am so glad im here
Very interesting and looks like hard work. Bless her heart and her family.
Oh my gosh bring some to me mouth watering i love africa
Hmmm the work hard oooh 💪🏿💪🏿
African parents are the best ❤👍🏿👍🏿
Everything about this video is perfect 👍🏿👍🏿👍🏿👍🏿👍🏿👍🏿👍🏿
African parents are the best? Hmmmmm!
They are so hard working... May God open greater doors for them... And may their hassle pay greatly..
The women doing all the work as usual, thumps up to them!
Its amazing that mama's kids are happy to continue in this business is beyond me. Kids of this generation are too keen to stay back in this kind of work. God bless this family.
Great job. Hard working family. Loved it!!! Would love to taste this dish!!!!
Oh god she is so strong and hard working lady
If it takes this long to cook this meal, you must have a lot of LOVE IN HEART! Americans! LEARN TO COOK FROM SCRATCH! BEAUTIFUL VIDEO!
Sassy Green Garden Diva Productions Your A.C.E. (Artistic Culinary Enthusiast) I'm American and I cook from scratch. Many of us do
What would make you think Americans don't cook from scratch. Don't believe everything on t.v
The only reason it took that long is because the lady sells it and has to make it from scratch. Normally, you buy the already processed cassava and t shouldn't take you more than 20 minutes to be done with.
Maurice Watkins, I wouldn't say many. Most families in America work away from home so there isn't much time for making meals from scratch. Many Americans either eat out or fix things that are out of boxes. It is slightly cheaper and more convenient to eat a fast food meal than fix a home cooked meal. For example, Wendy's has a 4 for $4 meal. Even though average home cooked meals are $4 and change per person, many Americans prefer convenience. That's why fast food restaurants thrive in America. There are no fast food chains in Nigeria.
Working 12-16 hour shifts a day leaves no time to do this all the time...most american men want their partner to work as much as them, sometimes more, it isn't like old times where the man is the bread winner and the woman cares for the home...most men here want to be taken care of!...so a woman working 12-16 hour shifts, then taking care of the husband, kids, and home, there isnt that many hours in a day! This looks like a 1-2 day job, a working person doesnt have the time.
This guy Is great. He's Very composed .
Love from Pakistan. Nice video. Really informative. Happy Ramadan.
I dey UK. I go dey cook abacha from scratch. Thanks Odinaka.
I am crying for their poor backs.
Odinaka, you are a blessing to your mom. I really appreciate your hard work. May God bless you all for helping mama make this a success.
I'm the most boring Enugu guy ever, I like my abacha just like that with plenty meat haha. All the ugba, garden egg, onions, and interesting things that they add, I should try it haha. I'm too simple. Great video. Igbo Kwenu!
This food Abacha nawaooo. Take forever.....dying here to teast it.
Everything is fresh. No processed bullshit like here in America. And our Nigerian sisters are so lovely. I can't wait to get there one day.
Ortho Tech agreed! You and me both!
She’s so hard working

We work had and gain less in this part of the world the rich are getting richer.all Nigerian woman are trained to serve and be a good wife.and still our men don't appreciate that effect,they prefer to end up marrying a foreigner.
