my husband is an Igbo. So I need to learn to cook igbo food since I'm not african. :) Thank you.
I have been preparing cassava for years and never knew they peeled as easily as plantains. My mind is blown and I am so happy. Thank you so much for the information you share so freely. I must share your video with all my friends now so they know how easy it is to peel cassava.
Wow, thanks for the feedback. I am glad you learnt something from that piece of information. :) Now I am glad I included that in the video. Lots of bits of information come to mind when I am making a video but during editing, in my bid not to bore people with what they know already, I take off some of them thinking that it is public knowledge. :)
All Nigerian Recipes It's like when I have to explain to my friends how to make South Indian food. I do things that my mother did, and generally do without thinking. Then, I show someone else how to do it, but forget to explain that I'm doing something specific. They didn't realise that I did it. Then disaster.
For example, there's a step in a lot of South Indian recipes that involves heating up hot fat in a pot, over highest heat. You then add whole spices (mustard seed, cumin seed, etc), and get them hot enough to "pop", so that they infuse the fat. While they're popping, you lift the pot off the heat for a moment, so that the oil doesn't overheat, and the spices don't burn. It took my friend watching me like a hawk before I realised that I do that lifting off the pot from the stove thing without thinking it's anything special, because it's so obvious to me. Others don't think it's so obvious!
This was long overdue! I searched everywhere for this recipe last month and didn't find any. So I finally just figured things out myself. So this is the first. Well done chef! 😃
Coming from a movie where they sell abacha. Love from Zambia 🇿🇲🇿🇲🇿🇲
Thanks again. I used this method (of cutting the cassava) and it worked. Before I tried cutting it into 2 halves and it went bad.
...Only that Spanish yuca doesn't have starch like our Nigerian cassava.
Thanks so very much, Flo Chinyere. I had cravings for abacha but couldn't find any in my neck of London, so yea, I decided to make my own. Since it's really bleak mid winter. I'm gonna dry the abacha in the oven, that should work.
Your channel is like a comfort zone for us bachelor abroad... love you.
I always look forward to watch your video and digest with what have learn from you.
Nnem da'alu,
You are a great blessing.
Isi ka,
learnt how to save serious my and still enjoy my local cuisine here.
Wow! As well as a cooking channel, you are teaching us how to save money too!! Abacha is expensive over here in London!
Your videos are so informative, thanks a lot cos I always come to channel to learn new recipes and your explanations are always on point 👍🏽💯
Honestly,this my aunt Flo ehnnnn,you're just too much.Lemme run to Carrefour and buy me some cassava fast.Abachaa,here i come......😍😘😁
You never disappoint me. Everything I've tried from you just came out perfect
Well done! :)
cayane troy Sure Auntie Flo's videos are always helpful. Whenever I tried something, and the result was bad, I would look it up on UA-cam, to know if auntie Flo has a video on that. And after which I would know where corrections needed to be made. Her videos are reliable.
I decided to buy cassava from the store this obodo spring/summer and I am happy to announce I have done my first batch of this cassava for Abacha process. It was a complete success. I cant wait to make the abacha proper. My dear, if it works as i expect it to work ehn... let me wait first. LOL
Yayy! 💃💃💃
I can't wait for the report on the Abacha meal.
@@FloChinyere It worked dear! I sent you a message on facebook with my picture of the food. Thank you Flo. Yipeeeeeeeeeeeeee
Thank you Flo Chinyere....I am so greatful to see you sharing how to make Abacha...we see this often in Nigerian movies!!! Watching from USA
Whaaaat! It's like you can read my mind, I was searching your page for abacha last week and now you've added a new video! Love it, thank youuuu!
Lisa, I have telepathy with all of you. All you need to do is think it and I'll serve it. :D :D Much love!
Hahaha, you are the best! Sending you lots of love
Thank you....I am a big fan of Nollywood film...and heard food terms like Abacha....which looked like 'cole slaw' that we make from cut cabbage.Watching from Brooklyn,NY :())) auntie
Hi Auntie! This one is the making of the ingredient, here's how the meal is prepared, the one that looks like coleslaw: ua-cam.com/video/jsy9qMWjnEc/v-deo.html
your videos are so amazing... so much detailed within a short time. I've learnt a lot on your channel. and your enthusiasm is contagious. thanks
Thank you Rich. I am glad you find them helpful.
I didn't know that cassava peeled so easily! Thanks for the video, lots of great tips
Yes, peels off more easily than yam. :)
Dearie, you made my day. you came at the right time for me. igbaliala ooo. jishie ike Nwanyi oma m.
Thank you very much for your great and interesting video recipe 🙏🏻👍👍👍👍👍
We don't have many days with sun and dry wether in Holland 😂😂😂😂☁️🌧⛈⚡️🌩🌨⛅️
But I like to learn something new everyday 😃👍
Awww! Tell me about it. Wet, wet Holland. :) You can spread it in your kitchen overnight and use a table fan (set to low) to dry it. It works too if the room is not too damp.
+All Nigerian Recipes Thank you!, that is a good idea👍
Ethics🏃🏃🏃😁
I'm from Cameroon and i say thank you
Thanks for making this video. Can I oven dry the cassava because it’s still winter where live. Thanks in advance
Thank you for showing this prep....I may not try it,but good to know how. I've seen this eaten in my Nollywood films. "GOYA" does a frozen cassava..... watching from NYC
Chinyere Nne na you Biko 👍🏽👍🏽👍🏽
I thought of doing abacha in China and I know one place I could run to; my Mummy’s channel and I’m here learning step by step to do it.
Gracias por tus clases y enseñarnos a utilizar sus ingredientes
Thanks love an learn it
I know must be coming years after, thank you for this video, exactly what I needed.
Thanks ma, now I know what abacha is made from. I used to wonder if it was some sort of dried coconut as I watch Nigerians eat it. I think I will try it.
Thank you so much Ma, am grateful
I need to do this in bulk, I make my own yucca salad.
Please can I use oven instead
SIS, AF' IGBO GI BU NDDIDI FOR SURE. WOW.
hahaha Nwanne m so true, this requires lots of patience ooo. :)xxx
Am so excited! I've always wanted to make abacha. Just did using this tutorial 😁😁
Thanks!!!now I can do my home made abacha
Please help a sister oooo. I over boiled the cassava roots on accident, please what can I use the cassava for since I can’t shred it to make abacha. It is too soft like overcooked yam.
You are the best belive me
Do we use only red cassava or we can use both?
Dear sister Flo, I need your rescue ASAP. I ONLY discovered this making abacha from scratch video after soaking cassava for two hours then grated them into abacha. What next? I missed the parboiling step; now I have fresh abacha and clueless what to do with them. They cannot go to waste at ALL nooooooooo.
I am going ahead to follow step two by soaking them overnight and wash them thoroughly according to the steps in your video. Question? Can I steam them after thorough wash then put them to dry in my oven at lowest setting until dry? Sunlight has diminished in the region where I live therefore I use my oven alot to hydrate many produce etc.
I'm troubleshooting here, any suggestions from you OR any of your subscribers.
Thank you for acknowledging my comment.
Thank you!
Lovely
Thank you.
Can we use a dehydrator for the drying process
Thank you sister Chinyere
Can I use knife to slice it if I don't have the grater and please ma how can I make ugbe form African oil beans seed
Can I grate the cassava before cooking
Can oven be used, no sun here. There is also a huge one called Akpu Mmiri but it can also be prepared with Abacha ingredients. Can you make a video on that too?
i love dis channel.
You are so educative and helpful. I’m far from a new subscriber. But I can’t stop watching your videos back to back. God bless you ❤️
Please, also make a video of how to make ogiri Igbo.
Nice job u are doing here ma'am
Chai ooo. I'll have to record my grandma making that when possible.
Can I use any kind of cassava
Hi please do u leave in spanish country if yes where exactly i want to know where african market is here am in Ecuador thanks
This is yummy flo I love stockfish in my abacha
Wow amazing
Thanks for sharing. I am Jamaican but curious when I heard of Abacha. Anyway my question is, can I dry abacus in the oven or dehydrator? Getting in the sun is kind of awkward for me. I currently resides in New York.
Am sure you can air dry it or just put in your kitchen maybe a place where sun can penetrate it
Dehydrator is the best if you have one
Great job Aunty flo
thanks for this beautiful sharing
u r a star
Awww nwanne m!
thanks
Ok thanks
Nice one
You are a darling... thanks for the video
What about putting it in the oven?
And what if there is no sun with me. Can I dry it in the oven? Will it affect the taste somehow?
Can I use normal grader
Excellent my sister :*
Hi Flo, can the abacha be dried in a food dehydrator?
Yes
thank you so much. i leave outside nigeria. i see cassava in the grocery store. it says yucca i hope i got the spelling correct. spanish people cook it and eat like yam. Now i will buy it and do my own abacha.
Linda yes that's the botanical name: yucca and in Spanish the spelling changes a bit: yuca.
Now you will no longer walk past it. :D :D
You can also make the bold wet abacha chips from it. Have you seen the video? >>> ua-cam.com/video/Qbd1v2aPtWM/v-deo.html
Or you can grate using a food processor..?
Can I do it with frozen cassava too?
Hello Mrs Flo,
In the Place of no sun , can one use a dehydrator?
Yes
I wonder if it could be dried in the oven under low heat or even using a food dehydrator.
Yes u can
Can u dry with oven?
i forgot to ask how do i get your cook book. how much is the book. you .my favorite food is ukwa and it's very expensive here and i like abacha a lot(african salad) your really a genius.God bless you.
God bless you too Linda. It depends on where you live, the cookbook is available in Nigeria and various Amazon websites. Click this link for details >>> www.allnigerianrecipes.com/cookbook/
Hi Flo, can you grate it b4 boiling
Yes but you have to be an expert to avoid over cooking
What If I don't have the grater
can't one eat it immediately instead of drying, and storing
Yes
Yucahu god of the yuca it’s a Taino word
Can you skip the 2 day drying process, if you want to use it right away to make a African salad ?
Yes you can but there's a difference between preparing it wet and when it is dried first then soaked before use. The wet one is not as satisfying.
@@FloChinyere thank you so much for replying. I really want to make this salad only using five ingredients, you had in you video. I plan on soaking it overnight and washing it six times like you showed. I just wanted to know if I can make the salad right after I wash it 6 times, it looks delicious.
Plz I want to ask u a question........ must I spread it under d sun where I am there's barely sun like dat of nigeria..... so can I watch it carefully nd still eat it that day
Even wind can dry this really. So spread it in your kitchen and set the fan on it, it will dry.
U can also start eating after washing
Is it possible to grate it dry it and make the abacha same day and eat it?
No. After grating you need to soak the abacha for at least 8 hours (I go with 12 hours) for you to be able to wash off the cyanide easily. Even if you soak it early in the morning by the time 8 hours is gone, the sun will be gone too.
I love you mama..you are the best..I give you 🔯🔯🔯🔯🔯
please ma which part of igbo land are you from , am guessing ENUGU
I am from Anambra. But I grew up in Coal City. :)

Abacha Mmiri? I already have the video >> ua-cam.com/video/Qbd1v2aPtWM/v-deo.html
+All Nigerian Recipes thank you. It's it.
Great content #prudenceomoye
How do i ensure that the poisonous substance is removed properly? Does this come out during boiling?
I mentioned in the video that washing it gets rid of the cyanide. Just make sure you wash it till it is no longer slimy and the sweet and sour taste is gone.
Am in Europe and I did my it was over cook and spoil.i taught it's the same as Nigeria own
Aww Sonia, so sorry to read that. It is very important to keep an eye on it. I bought the one I used in the video in Spain. Do not give up, try again, ok?
What if there is no sun?
But you shouldn't put your left hand in the thing
This is Nigerian cassava pasta?
Yes, you can call it that. lol
what language in Nigeria do you speak?
Igbo :)
All Nigerian Recipes I guess she speaks igbo
Like ur videos, please can u make 'ifokore' grated yam poridge, will like to know what the name of the yam is called in English, plzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzz. Thanks
