lmao!!!!! No be my fault na!…..please blame it on the igbo accent debbie….lolz!
Why not whisk †ђε eggs before adding to the other ingredients the fire?
if u are really from eastern Nigeria, you should know its uGu leaves and not ugwu as u wrote.
Hi itseme, whisking the eggs before adding to the pot and adding directly before mixing is a matter of choice as it ends up the same way once it incorporated with the other ingredients in the pot. Personally, I add the eggs directly instead of whisking first cos I love seeing chunks of egg white and yolk separately in the sauce.
Thanks for the correction.
Hallo, this looks delicious, and I want to try it! Can I use spinach instead of ugu cause ugu is hard to find in my locale? Thanks.
yes you can but it won't taste the same though.
