Recipe 4 nkwobi….
Ingredients are…
Cow head or cow tail or any part of cow @ all.
Potash
Water
Onions
Pepper
Ehuru
Utazi
Palmoil
Maggi
Salt 2 taste
PROCEDURE….
Put d potash in water 2 melt(preferably warm water). Spice ur cow meat wit salt,onions,pepper,maggi till soft enof 2 b chewed,get a pot or bowl in wch u intend 2 use 2 mix ur nkwobi,pour out a little quantity of d potash water,pour in a little quantity of palmoil(d quantity of potash water n palmoil depends on d quantity of nkwobi u r making) n stir,d end result shud b a thick yellowish mixture,if u get dat,u can start adding other ingredients lyk ur pepper,onions maggi,ehuru(I dnt knw d english name 4 ehuru bt u can ask any1 dat sells peppersoup spice 4 it,dey shud knw it),salt 2 taste. If d taste is ok,u pour in ur drained cow parts n stir until it is evenly mixed den u spread ur utazi leaf on it….dats all.
Eya d procedure 4 d nkwobi is also d procedure 2 b used 2 prepare ur isi-ewu bt urs was dry cos u dint use d potash n palmoil mixture. Wish I was making it anytym soon so u see wat it shud look lyk.
NOTE:U can also add ugba(4gotn d english name ooooo,pls 4give me)2 ur nkwobi. I hope I helped.
I usually sieve d potash mixture before adding palm oil
@chubby ELLA please what is Ehuru?
Ella I thought nkwobi is cowleg or tail not head or any other meaty part of d cow. I guess I'm wrong then. Tnx 4 d recipe. What is potash, ehuru and ugba? Plz post d ingredients when u cook it so we know what dey look like. Tnx
Thanks Ella, yes you helped.
Lol @dats all. Ehuru is calabash nutmeg
If d cow leg is too hard, place a fork at d bottom of d pot. It makes it boil and soften faster. Nkwobi is just like isi ewu.
@Ruthy! where have you been? I missed your tips. They help.
Thank God, no brain was added!! I can finally try out this recipe. Lol.
@galaxy babe, ma dear I dey oh! aww… Tnx a lot.
@Young awesome mum…its ok if u sieve,bt if u leave d potash in d water a wyl by d tym u r ready 2 use it,it wud hv settled 2 d bottom of d bowl so u can easily pour out d water witout pouring out particules of d potash,all d same it works.
@Lizzy…yes nkwobi is mostly made wit cowleg or tail bt cos I'm nt a bone lover,i lyk 2 add some fleshy parts 4 easy chewing n no much struggles. Lyk I said,I dnt knw d english names 4 ehuru n ugba bt if u go 2 d market n ask,u shud/must find dem(ehuru is mainly used 4 peppersoup so peppersoup spice sellers shud have dem)…potash is also known as akawun(if dats d name u knw).
Beta without d goat brain o! Before someone will start thinking like a goat!
