Ofe Akwu is a palm nut stew that is native to the Igbos tribe in Nigeria specifically Anambra state. Note that there is no ofe akwu without a scent leaf aka Nchuawu. I love to enjoy my ofe akwu with a plate of hot white rice

I love to experiment base on what I can see in the kitchen; I walk into the kitchen blind and I come out with a plate of food. My kitchen is my laboratory and you can be my lab rat 😋😋😋. A foodie by day and A foodie by night. #Icookueat
