Op you don't need to soak overnight or uae a mortar. That process is too long.

I wash my beans in 15mins. I learnt a very easy to peal method and it works fast. Just with the hands...no mortar.

And some people believe it is not moimoi if it is not wrapped in the leaves
Yes I know you can wash it immediately, but soaking for a long time makes soft and easier for the blender blade to break it down without much stress.

Op nice meal but it doesnt look appealing cos the 3 table spoon groundnut oil is not adequate for the quantity of moi moi u made.

Nice one... But I don't soak my beans for 6hrs or over night, in fact it makes it harder to wash because the Beans becomes too soft and break easily thereby making you go through the stress of removing the coat one by one . I wash it immediately I put it in water, it doesn't take more than 15 - 30mins. Secondly I don't add thyme to mine or even curry. Thanks for sharing.

Moi moi a versatile food in Nigeria; it pairs well with akamu, acha pudding, garri, jollof rice and sometimes Quaker oat; it is usually prepared by steaming.
Instead of steaming your moi moi, you can also bake it in the oven by placing your loaf pan or moi moi bowls in a bigger loaf pan filled with water and then bake at 350F for 35- 40 minutes or until the liquid dries in the moi moi.

Moi moi can be wrapped in banana leaves or with ewe, this is the traditional way of making moi moi, however, if you live where there is no access to moi moi leaves, you can use containers, foil papers or plates to make your moi moi, these work well for this recipe too. Below are the ingredients you need for moi moi. See the Video above for the short video on how to make moi moi.

Ingredients for moi moi

1. 2 cups of beans (black eyed beans)
2. 1 frozen mackerel, cut into medium sizes
3. 3 bell peppers (tatashe)
4. 4 medium tomatoes, optional
5. 3 scotch bonnet peppers (Ata Rodo)
6. ½ cup of crayfish, rinsed
7. 2 medium onions
8. 1 teaspoon curry powder
9. 4 eggs (2 hard boiled and two raw eggs)
10. 1 teaspoon thyme
11. 2 stock cubes
12. 3 tablespoons cooking oil
13. Salt to taste
14. Moi moi containers

Steps for Making Moi Moi

1. Add beans into a wide bowl and top up with cool water, leave beans to stay overnight or for 6 hours to absorbed water and easy to peel.
Use a mortar and pestle to gently peel the beans or use hand to peel the beans skin by rubbing beans against your palms. Add water to
the beans and it over a colander to strain out the peeled skin, add clean water to the beans to rinse properly.

2. Cut bell peppers and onions into smaller sizes. Season and cook the mackerel to extract some rich stock after that take out the bones and
use a fork to shred the fish into smaller. Place 2 stock cube in a bowl with alt, use the hot fish stock to dissolve it and set aside. Boil eggs
and slice them into circular shapes. Oil inside of the moi moi bowls/pans with a little oil or butter and set everything aside.

3. Combine beans, red bell pepper, onion, crayfish and ½ cup of water in a blender, blend until the barter turns out very smooth. Pour beans
into a wide bowl, season with the dissolved stock cube, salt, curry powder, thyme and stir very well until well incorporate.
4. Add the fish stock to the beans to adjust the consistency (it should be neither watery nor too thick).

5. Pour the mixed bean barter into your moi moi bowls half way full; don’t full the bowls to the brim because moi moi tends to swell as it
cooks.Combine the hard-boiled eggs and the shredded fish to the moi moi in the bowls.

6. Add about two cups of water to a wide pot, place the moi moi in the pot of water and place a lid over the pot with a foil paper wrapped
over it. This will help to trap in air while the moi moi is steaming.

7. Place the moi moi on heat to cook for 20 minutes ; exchange the position of the bowls if you can by taking the moi moi bowls below to the
top and the ones at the top to the bottom of the pot so that the heat get distributed evenly to each of the bowls. Also, add small quantity
of water at time while cooking the Moi Moi if needed.

8. After cooking moi moi for another extra 20 minutes, insert a fork or tooth pick inside it to check if the liquid is dried, ones it comes out dry
it means moi moi is done. Take the pot off heat, moi moi is cooked serve warm with rice or pap.

It's so funny how people assume things they don't know, did you take your time to watch and read the article and the video at all, or you just jumped into conclusion. Copy this article and paste on google to confirm if truely I copied it or I sat down to make the food and wrote down the steps all by myself. Sorry dear, it's not a copied work and I didn't get it from anywhere, I wrote this and I made the food as well.

It is Isi Ewu and not nkwobi picture!

Isi Ewu as the name implies is a spiced goat head recipe; this is one of the most requested delicious traditional food originated from South-eastern parts of Nigerian; there is no traditional marriage, chieftaincy tittle or special traditional gatherings without Isi Ewu. Isi Ewu is prepared using goat head and some rich spices and herbs, it is a very common food sold in Nigerian restaurants or local food ts; instead of visiting these restaurants to ask for a plate of Isi Ewu, you can make some at home that is even tastier than the restaurant style to enjoy with your loved ones. See the Video too.

Isi Ewu ingredients

1. 1 Goat head, I used two heads
2. 1 teaspoon of edible potash, (Akanwu/Kaun)
3. 1 handful of Utaz leaves
4. 6 pieces ehuru (calabash nutmeg), ground
5. 1 table spoon goat meat mix spice
6. 2 stock cubes
7. 1 teaspoon onion powder
8. 2 medium fresh onions
9. 3 scotch bonnets
10. ½ teaspoon cayenne pepper
11. 1 cup palm oil
12. Salt to taste

Steps on How to Make Isi Ewu

1. Wash Goat head thoroughly under running water to remove sand and black sooth, bring it into a large pot.
2. Season the meat with large chunks of onions, onion powder, pepper, stock cubes, ehuru, salt and goat meat spice.
3. Add water to slightly cover the meat and place on heat to cook for about 40 minutes or until tender.
4. Bring the goat brain into a foil paper, wrap it and add to the meat to cook.
5. Add about two fresh peppers to a mortar and crush, after 20 minutes take out the brain, add and mash with the crushed pepper and set
aside.
6. While the meat is still boiling, dissolve potash with 4 tablespoons of water and strain out particles, shred Utazi leaves, slice onion into
rings and set all aside. Once the meat is cooked, separate it from the stock and set aside.
7. In a wide pan, add palm oil, bring the potash mix and pour it to the oil a little at a time while you stir with a spatula, you will notice the
palm oil beginning to curdle as you stir.
8. Keep adding the potash mix and stir for few minutes. Once it riches a certain stage the palm oil will change to a light yellow or orange like
color and becomes thicken.
9. Add 1 tablespoon of the meat water to adjust the consistency of the sauce, bring the goat brain you have mashed with the pepper into the
sauce and mix until it dissolves.
10. After that, add more seasonings (Ehuru, ½ stock cube, goat meat spice and cayenne pepper) to taste. Add a little of the goat meat water
to adjust the thickness. Add some shredded Utazi and stir properly.

Too much processed food is not very good as all the nutritional benefits are depleted. How long does it take to blend fresh tomatoes. Common!!Then companies will take this and be adding cancer causing chemicals and food colourings, are we getting Lazier as a nation? Nothing beats the taste of fresh food. Living in a city is no excuse.
Yeah so true, seems we are becoming so lazy. Nobody wants to take time to make food from scratch at home, always craving for already processed products.
