How to Cook the Best Ofe Akwu (Banga Stew)

Ofe Akwu Ingredients:

800g palm fruits (5 cups)
1kg (2.2lbs) beef
1 dry fish
2 smoked mackerel (titus fish)
1-2 bulbs of red onion
2 tablespoons ground crayfish
2 small seasoning cubes
1 small lump of ogiri okpei
Habanero pepper (to your taste)
Scent leaves

Tools and utensils you’ll need:

You’ll need mortar and pestle to pound the palm fruits. If you don’t have mortar and pestle, some people have told me that they use:
a food processor.
a stand mixer with the K-beater.
an empty wine bottle as pestle while using a pot as mortar.
their hands to mash and squeeze the boiled palm fruits but I do not recommend this one because it requires the palm fruits to be VERY hot and your dominant hand will NOT thank you for this.
Knife and chopping board
Sieve
Notes on the Ofe Akwu Ingredients
If you do not have palm fruits, you can use tinned palm fruit concentrate to prepare Ofe Akwu but it does not taste as good as when fresh palm fruits are used.
Ogiri Okpei is traditional locust bean seasoning. It is not the same as Ogiri Igbo. If you don’t have ogiri okpei, skip it.
You can use gilthead sea bream fish instead of mackerel.
I HIGHLY recommend red onions. It adds a special taste to Ofe Akwu more than any other type of onions.
Please note that scent leaf is not the same as mint leaf. Mint leaf will ruin your Ofe Akwu so NEVER use it for this stew. Scent leaf is unique to Nigeria. If you don’t have it, use parsley. Some people have found comfort using basil. But it does not taste like when scent leaf is used.
Before you prepare Ofe Akwu
Soak the dry fish in water to soften. When soft, clean, debone and break into small pieces.
Chop the onions.
Pound the Ogiri Okpei and pepper in a mortar till smooth.
Rinse and boil the palm fruits till done then pound in a mortar till the flesh forms a smooth pulp.
Separate the palm nuts from the pulp then rinse the pulp in as hot water as your hands can handle to get a thick concentrate. See the video below for how to do this. When done, set aside to settle.
Pick the scent leaves and slice.
Smoke the mackerel in your oven if you have not done so. Then debone and break into large pieces.

Directions for cooking the Ofe Akwu:

Boil the beef with the seasoning cubes and half of the chopped onions till done. For best results, I grill the meat in the oven.
Slowly decant the palm fruit concentrate into the pot you will use to cook the Ofe Akwu making sure the unwanted sediments do not go into the pot.
Add the beef stock, the grilled meat, dry fish, the remaining onions, ogiri okpei and pepper and crayfish.
Cover and start cooking. When it boils, continue cooking till you see some red oil floating on top.
Add the smoked mackerel and scent leaves.
Cover and once it boils again, it’s done! Taste and add salt if necessary.

An Easy Homemade Bread - Just 5 Ingredients 😍
Ingredients
2 Cups of Warm Water
2/3 Cup Honey
1 3/4 Tablespoons Active Dry Yeast
1 1/2 Teaspoons Salt
6 Cups Bread Flour
Directions
In a large mixing bowl, whisk together warm water and honey until honey is dissolved. Add yeast, and cover with a towel.
In about 10-20 minutes, your mixture should look delightfully frothy.
Mix in your salt, and then add the bread flour one cup at a time. (Use the whisk for the first three cups and then switch to a wooden spoon or silicone spatula for the last three cups.)
Add a little extra flour to your hands and knead the dough, about 5 minutes. (Knead the dough right in the large mixing bowl. It keeps your counter cleaner.) Place kneaded dough in a large, greased bowl and cover with towel.
After an hour, your dough should have risen significantly.
*Punch the dough for awhile then knead again for a couple of minutes. *Divide into two lightly-greased loaf pans and cover with your towel once more.
After allowing the dough to rise for 30 minutes in the loaf pans, bake in a preheated oven at 325 for 30-35 minutes.
A lot of bread recipes use an oven at 350, 325 works better if you use honey.
