A Nigerian lady’s first attempt at preparing ogbono soup has captured attention of many on social media after she shared her disappointing experience online.
The lady @badgirlalla on X (formerly Twitter), posted a photo of her unappetizing dish, which drew a flurry of reactions from netizens offering helpful corrections.
In her post, the young lady detailed her missteps in cooking the traditional Nigerian soup.
She explained that she had added red oil to the pot but forgot to mix the ogbono (wild mango seeds) with water before incorporating it into the oil.
Instead of the expected thickened soup, her attempt resulted in a black, unpalatable mixture.
Describing her experience, she wrote:
“Made ogbono for the first time. The thing was, I applied the red oil, kinda bleached it then forgot to add the ogbono inside little water. I just poured the dry ogbono inside the oil, stiring it, before I know, everything was black and my ogbono did not draw. A whole 1 cup of ogbono wasted.”
