Exploring the Delicious World of Igbo Cuisine: Abacha and African Salad
Abacha salad and African Salad are two popular traditional dishes amongst the Eastern tribe of Nigeria, specifically the Igbos. Abacha, made from cassava, can be eaten as a starter or a full meal served with dry fish or ponmo (cow skin). On the other hand, African Salad, also known as Abacha Ncha, is made with dried shredded cassava in a creamed palm oil sauce, paired with fried fish, cowfoot, and garden eggs. These dishes are not only delicious but also hold significant cultural value for the Igbo people.
