Homemade Eba with Efo

First, let me tell you what inspired this post. A sister of mine came to visit me, and we've been watching a movie for some hours now. As time goes on, we got hungry and decided to eat but we are too tired to cook because of the stress we’ve passed through the day. We had to go for a fast food called Eba made with Garri and Efo Riro Soup

Then I thought of shooting the process and putting them on my Blog as it might come in handy for people out there searching for easy step by step of making Eba. Eba may be simple to make but not everyone knows how to make it, even some people out there can't cook noodles :)

Eba is one of the most common swallowed food in Nigeria. It is coined from Cassava named Garri. You can eat it with soups like Efo riro, Okro soup, Afang, etc. Eba is made with hot water and Garri. I am going to be showing you in this article how easy it is to make Eba.

To make Eba you will need A Pot, Garri, Hot water, a Turning spoon, or Spatula.

How to Make Eba

Boil water in a pot and then slowly add Garri and stir it very well. Use a spoon or spatula to turn it till it comes together and it’s lump-free.

Serve it with soups like Efo riro, Okro soup, or any other soup of choice. Although, I ate it today with Efo Riro soup.

You can chew the Garri grains. Yes, it is very ok to chew the grains straight out of the pack because Garri is roasted and processed from cassava. Chew it with groundnuts (peanuts), coconut, or palm nuts. You're welcome!

You can also add cold water, sugar, milk, groundnuts (peanuts) and drink it like cereal.

For the Vegetable 🍃

You will need Onion, Fresh pepper, Palm oil, Maggi, salt, Vegetable leaf, and Water.

Get a neat pot ready, place it on heat. Add a little quantity of palm oil, let it hot a bit, and then add sliced onion, fry for some seconds, and add grated pepper.

I prefer to add seasonings and already boiled meat and fish at this juncture and cover it for some time. After some time, I remove my meat and fish from the pepper and I add my already blanched vegetable leaf and cover it for some mins.
When I feel the soup is almost ready, I pour back the meat, fish, and other things that I removed initially and allow everything to cook properly together.

That is the way I get the result of my homemade Eba and Efo Riro.

Thanks for the constant love shown to my blog, I appreciate it. Happy new week always stay healthy.
