So while out today, I saw the green vegetables and decided to buy it and try my hand with efo riro

Diced leg tail kpomo and some piece of turkey

Sliced onions and peppee/tomatoes(blended)

Mountain of vegetables(shokor)

Smoked fish

Nice one...
If a young man is well groomed in domestic chores (cooking, washing, cleaning, etc) he would enjoy bachelorhood.
some of the memories would last a lifetime.
There will be no need to rush after women as if his destiny depends on them. BACHELORHOOD IS BAE

#Guys like Op wey sabi cook, na them they dey rush.

Crayfish

Frying of the tomato/pepper/fish


After adding the meats

After adding and turning the vegetables rigorously

Final results

Wheat(this thing hard to make oo)

Fortunately for me,It was quite tasty and my people that tasted it complimented me so.... Yippee

What do you guys think?
Criticism and compliments


And I had to take screenshots of the photos cause nairaland said the originals were too large(plus I de even manage data in the first place so e favour me)

Firstly, you tried but from the last picture, it showed u didnt put the efo inside hot water b4 adding it to the stew

Not everybody soak the vegetable in hot water before cooking. My dad believes the hot water kills mos of the nutrients. So when cooking vegetables for him, we just rinse the veggies with salt and add to the sauce.

You did excellent well. No need to soak in hot water as it kills most of the phyto-nutrients of the Vegetables.

It also render them soft and irritatingly yucky without taste
