Ekwang or Ekpang Nkwkwo is incredibly delicious! Eaten in both Cameroon and Nigeria, it is a meal made up of grated cocoyams (taro) wrapped in cocoyam leaves (taro leaves) then cooked with red palm oil and other ingredients. It has a rich flavor and hands down one of my favorite meals in the whole world! Hope you enjoy watching me make this African food.

Do you find little particulars when you use the juicer to purée the cocoyam? Because I get quite a bit of particulars when used the a juicer and I end up using the blender to purée it again. Double work.

Precious: We call it Ekpang nkukwo ikpong in Ibibio; Ekpang connotes a kind of wrap, nkukwo is the very tender sprout of the cocoyam leaves and finally, ikpong means cocoyam. We share similar culture / ancestry with Western Cameroon I believe.

I used to think wrapping ekwang is a herculean tasks until I lived in Buea and my southwest friends from Tiko did it like no man's business in little to no time. I then learned and became an expert. Unfortunately there's no explanation on how to do it quick but I think u get better and faster with practice. It's no longer too much work for me. Thanks lady P for yet another dish on my weekend menu. Ekwang on my mind for tomorrow's meal. Love love 💘
