WEIRD FOOD COMBINATIONS LOH-CONTEST #87

avatar

Greetings to all the dear ladies of the hive, I love this community and I love you all.
It gives me so much joy to be a part of this week's contest #87, when I saw the topic it made me feel happy and it brought back memories of growing up, as a teenager and as a mother today.
2️⃣ What weird food combinations do you enjoy?
There is a lot of weird food I enjoy, I don't see them as weird because anytime I eat such food I get so happy and free to eat as much as I can. Some come as a snack and others as food.
As a child, you sneak to make this weird food but as a mother, you own your kitchen and cook whatever you want and experiment with different food that comes out good and weird too.

SNACK

  1. Crayfish and onion: As a child, this snack gives us the taste of "SUYA".
  2. Kernel and soak cassava flakes (Garri): Growing up as a child my mother always use palm fruit extract (Banga) as a thinking agent and oil for her soup, this made us always have palm kernel nut. We break the seeds to get the nut and enjoy.
  3. Ikara and groundnut: Ikara is made of corn, very ripe plantain and a pinch of salt mixed very well and fry in palm oil.

WEIRD FOOD

  1. Bread and pap: This serves as breakfast for me the taste always reminds me of my childhood and the feeling I get is all for me.
  2. Beans cocoa yam and avocado with palm oil: The site of this food is like a traditional ancient sacrifice for the gods but it's a very healthy meal, weird isn't it? I love cocoa yam, there are two types we use at home, one serves as a thinking agent for making soup and the other one can serve as yam. You can cook, fry or roast, anyhow it comes I enjoy cocoa yam.
  3. Tapioca pudding (kpokpo garri) soak in pig meat stock with vegetables and fried fish: this is my best and mind-blowing.


Last year in December I travelled to Delta state the town where I grow up to visit my parents. So much fun, my schoolmate who came to see me took me to a sit-out where they now make Tapioca(kpokpo Garri) the way people would enjoy it more and I did.

  1. Cassava flakes(garri) and Geisha mackerel in tomatoes sauce can(tin): those that went to the boarding house in the 90s can remember. All boarder comes to school with provision, cassava flakes and spices. School food is no assurance to get satisfied so we argument with our provision, that's where eba and geisha come in even as a mother I still enjoy it.
    Thank you for reading it's been nice to share my weird food with you.
    I would like to invite @nkemakonam89 and @dimmablogs to join this contest.

I loved that frase you said :
I don’t see them as weard food cause it makes you Happy eating them well said 😉👍

And as kids we sure do try to combine things we love and sometimes I bet People thought... Hmm that doesn't look to good 😁 lol
And being grown up, you own your kitchen and tires mix things up.

Mabye there is no real weard food, just new ones that Nobody tried before? 😁

That cassava flakes do sounds good, never heard of it but that is a thing I could try.

Really good ones.
Thank you for sharing and Good luck.

Wow, your words just made my evening. Truly I don't see them as weird food because the taste of the food makes me happy🥰
Cassava flakes (garri) it's ground cassava you fry dry with a little palm oil just for it to have a yellow colour. Then you can eat anything of your choice.
Just give it a trial and enjoy.
Thanks for stopping by, am so glad you did.😘
