i have been married to a wonderful nigerian american husband for almost 12 years now and this is my 1st time cooking this fabulous beans recipe. When he tried this, he loveeeed it very much and starts to ask me to do it more often. knowing that he is very picky especially when comes to his childhood food, his compliment makes my day. he even said that this beans tasted the best!! - i did mine about triple the amount. i omitted the crayfish because i dont have it on hand. i did mine in pressure cooker for about 18 minutes and with quick release. Thanks Chef Lola!!

You need to smoke on wood/charcoal to get the smokey taste. Though you can play around to get similar effect like using the liquid smoke (sold in grocery stores) or place a hot charcoal in the oven (quite a risky but it works).

@Nononononotatall 2 жыл бұрын

Try Maggi seasoning cubes. If you want crayfish powder substitute you can get some whole shrimp (devein them) and put them on a baking tray and bake them (on fairly low) until they dry out completely. Afterwards, you can blend this into a powder and you are good to go! It’s just an umami addition and not wholly necessary but it does pack a serious flavour. I imagine you might even use some smoked paprika- just to give it a bit more depth

It takes about an hour to cook them soft on medium to high heat. The beans shouldn't sprout overnight but if that is the case for you, you can soak for about 4 to 5 hours. You can also cook it in the crock pot, pressure cooker or instant pot. I hope that helps?
