Start the day by tasting the classic Jollof rice, a one-pot rice dish flavored by tomatoes, onions, and butter. After the meal, your guide will accompany you to the market to enjoy Abacha cassava salad native to the people of Igbo. Then, head back and prepare pounded yam and Banga (palm fruit) soup, which originated in the Niger Delta and the South Eastern parts of Nigeria. Try your hands in cooking garden egg stew, a tasty stew made with garden eggs, tomatoes, and your choice of fish and seafood. End the half-day activity with a full stomach as you satisfy your palate with the delicious Masa (rice cake) and stew combo.
