This is a popular Igbo delicacy.
Ingredients
Bread fruit (Ukwa)
Akanwu (crystal soda) (optional)
Palm oil
A cube of maggi or half knorr
Salt and pepper to taste
Before you cook
Pick the ukwa as it can be filled with the shell/back and sand
Wash very well
Method
Cook in a pressure cooker if you have or your normal stove with enough water covering it with the akanwu (akanwu is optional though)
After about roughly 20-30 mins (or when it is quite soft), add salt
Pending on your choice of cooking this delicacy, you could choose to transfer your cooking into another pot
Fry onions in palmoil, add the cooked ukwa gently while mixing in the oil and onion
Add your maggi, crayfish and pepper
Remember not to stir, allow enough water that would disseminate the ingredients as it boils, allow to cook till the water is dried then serve.
Note: this recipe could easily go wrong if you involve lots of spices or more than a cube of maggi (less is better)
