Nkwobi has its origin in Igboland. I consider it an evening meal because it’s usually enjoyed at the end of the day’s work when you want to relax and whine mouth with something scrumptious. Nkwobi is basically a delicious meal of cow /goat meat (especially leg, tail) prepared in spicy palm oil sauce and garnished with or (utazi or uziza leaf). I used goat meat in preparing mine,not a fan of cow meat.Nkwobi was initially a speciality in most bars and local restaurants in Igboland.
You would enjoy it better ,if you prefer to go for local palm wine 🥰.
I made this for an entry for a competition sometime ago.
