Nigerian Cuisine Exposure

Nigerian cuisine seems to be going into extinction - well its a gradual process, because we don't realize how rich our country's culture is in terms of food. There are soo many tribes with so many dishes with so many alternative ways to make them, its amazing! Every adult that got the chance to travel around during the '70s and the '80s enjoyed some of these varieties and I am sure will be lamenting this extinction.
This is one of the major reasons I took to sharing Nigerian recipes via this blog, to try to keep the memory alive!
I noticed some other people share this reality - On NigeriansTalk, the Blogger took the time to compile all the notable mentions of food in our Beloved Blogosphere. Our favourite, Alhaji's Groove, got a mention, as well as our African Weight Loss Favourite.

Please go over and read it all up!

Dishes galore

Nigeria is a very diverse country, with its people so different, and the tribes so unique from each other, that its a wonder we are all together under one flag!
Our different foods are as diverse as our different cultures. What is sauce for the goose is NOT sauce for the gander in most parts of Nigeria.
So this blog is a way to merge our foods in one place - Igbo, Yoruba, Efik, Ibibio, Hausa, Edo - every tribe! Bring your recipes and post them here.
It will be sorted out, by product, that is, if its garri, please submit recipes that are derived from garri, or if its palm kernel oil, then do the same BY REPLYING each post.
Thanks, fellow Nigerians!
Let's begin!
