HOW TO COOK UKWA- African Breadfruit Porridge Without Oil| Igbo Local Meal. 

Any ukwa that didn't done is called Asara Asa, meaning they used alom to remove the shaft when they were processing it, it makes the ukwa to swallow up so it will double in size, it can never done, or some go done some will not, whenever u are buying go for the smaller one that may look dirty I mean they still have the shaft in it, but u see those ones that looks neat and sharp na Asara Asa be that, no near that one at all.

Ukwa means more than a meal when presented to a visitor, it's a symbol of great hospitality, love, generosity etc, highly nutritional without fat or calories, it's highly recommended 4 pple who're diabetic, in many cultures they mix it with a cooked corn🌽 b4 serving, in some parts of Igbo land its a special meal to welcome Ozo titled pple like Chief Ofiafuluagu & Lolo G.O

Extraordinary highly nutritional food that takes a lot of work & time to prepare, There's a tree that bringsforth a giant round greenish 🧶🌳fruits (as big as a giant pumpkin)usually fall off when it's ripe, inside it are multiple thousands of brown seeds 🍃which're removed out of it in a special way, later cleaned & washed, dried up in d sun, later peeled, then milky colored UKWA seeds which is cooked & served as demonstrated here

Wow you are so generous. You shared all your recipe and all your secrets with your viewers. Very kind of you. Remain tremendously blessed Lady Ogom

Pressure pot is a game changer! I love love ukwa a lot! That’s a great tip on how to use pressure pot ooo❤

Ukwa is a very rich food and represent a lot in Igbo land. A very good home welcomeing meal and more. Thanks for taking us step by step

I just cooked this today and it came out perfectly. Very soft with baking soda, and so much flavor. The only issue I have is that the top turned a black greenish color, when I covered it and left in oven. I am not sure why the color change? It still taste amazing. I have cooked this twice before, the first time it was not edible it was like tiny rocks and I cooked for almost 6 hours. Than I realized you have to soak dried ukwa overnight the second time i cooked it. The 2nd time it was edible, but it was still not soft enough and not sweet and seasoned really well. This 3rd time is the charm.only issue us color change mentioned earlier. Very expensive but worth every dime. As a matter of fact, you will not enjoy this wonderful meal, if it is not prepared well.I eas introduced to this a few years back and ever since I have been hooked.

I cook and eat porridge ukwa but I think I'm loving the ukwa without oil, it looks creamy and delicious. You really explained the whole processes so well. Well done 👍👍

Look so yummy, great jop

Awesome. I prefer the one with oil. I can't get tired of eating ukwa. Thanks for this.

I have been seeing Ukwa a lot at igbo traditional weddings. I only tasted it once. That snail though 🤤

I love yellow porridge ukwa with ogiri but hubby likes white dry one with soup on the side.

That looks good and healthy. I’ve never tried it ooo. Don’t even know what it looks like as a fruit. Lemme go Google it and see.

See ehnn big sis ,you just brought my main long throat out but the fear of dollar rate now is the beginning of my wisdom.. Lolo do you know that just 100G of breadfruit here in India is 300ruppes and when you exchange that money to naria ehnnn ...I for say make I prepare Ukwa nah cause I'm salivating..Nnem your hands are blessed 😋😋😋💯💯🙌

Haven't had it before but after watching this, I'm willing to try it. Looks tasty 😋

Oscabilo, you are doing well ❤❤

Delicious and yummy Thanks for sharing this with us ❤

Porridge, the way to go

Weldon Lolo, you really took your time to explain the process to us

I prefer the portage Ukwa but my husband like the white one with lot of water , the whole process is everything, from the washing process, using pressure pot, to doing it in the normal pot, sharing the Ukwa in two, I really enjoyed watching nwanyi oma, thanks so much for sharing Lolo Ofu Ife Ofia ❤️🙏

This dish takes long o but I bet it's worth it. I also cook beans with pressure pot and my husband doesn't eat porridge beans😁 so I do take his own out before adding oil and pepper. I enjoyed watching this.

Hello dear, thanks much for ur video on ukwa preparation which is very detailed. However, both the white n red oil ukwa are both porridge. The difference is that red oil was added to one while the other contains no red oil. Thanks once more.
