Our ancestors were EVERYTHING! Making this right now but began using dawa dawa and vegan egg! Thank you sister!
okay, so im vegan and my BF is not. He's Ghanian. We have been together for 4 years now and ive been so nervous to attempt Ghanian food but thats all this man wants to eat ( Dont blame him its the best food ive ever tasted) and I just wanna be good to him lol. Anyway after watching this I wanted to try it myself and it seemed like an easy one to make, to veganize, and we also have the local food processor you used so i felt empowered to make it. I couldnt find kontonmire, not even at the african market near by. My BF was sceptical, but I insisted that it should work well since Nanaaba said so. My BF also isnt a fan of dawadawa because of how it is prepared, so instead i used tempe ( feremented soy bean ). With all that said... HE ENJOYED IT!! He said it tasted really close. He was dancing as he ate it. I was so happy to see him happy like that. He hasnt been home in 8 years. The Ghanian resturants around here only make like 4 dishes and this isnt one. So im sure he not only enjoyed the taste but the nostalga. THANK YOU SO MUCH for posting videos and PLS PLS PLS more veganized ghanian dishes. I will make more of your recipes and your recipes only.
Your feedback brought me so much more joy! Thank you! Please search Nanaaba’s kitchen vegan recipes. I have a ton on this channel! Much love 🙏🏼

Hey friend! Thank you dear😘😘
Nana pls where did you buy the tuber? Cant remember the English word for it
Hi mom i love your cooking
Hi Yaa Baby, thank you dear and I love you for watching and commenting 😘
Nice channel and I hope I get lots of experience from you. We can get plantain and the root vegetable usually it has black skin in local African store. I did not buy it because we have to buy entire root and it is too big. Maybe you could make video series about the local ingredients you have around your area and then also share how you store them for later use? Thank you very much. Knowledge is everything ;)
Wow what a fantastic idea!!! Certainly up for that! Will put it in the works! Thank you so much 😊🙏🏿

Great recipe. ..I shall add roasted peanuts next time.
Nana Aba baako p3 ...lol
Anita Twumasi -Mensah, thank you so much for your compliments😘 you’ll love the inclusion of roasted peanuts 😋
Nana where can I get kontomire in USA?
several Asian/Vietnamese supermarkets stock a lot of the food items Africans use. Also, some Mexican grocery shops stock them. I got mine from a Vietnamese supermarket.
When did the groundnut go in?
I’ve never heard of adding peanut to abomu🤔I’ll check it out.
I think it's an Asante thing. As a fante we never did it at home but learnt it from my Asante friend.
Sweet sis,i miss home ɛfie ne fie.
3fie ni fie ampa Onua 🙏🏾❤️❤️
Hello Nanaaba! Could you please tell me where to find the kontomire? I really want to grow it in my garden. Thank you! I cant wait to try this recipe
I got it from a Vietnamese store located locally here in Chandler Arizona 🙏🏽
Thank you Nanaaba! 😊
@@NanaabasKitchen Please - what is it called at the store?
🙋🏾♀️🙋🏾♀️ Can you use a blender aswell?
Greetings!!! I just bought an Asanka!! As is your husband: I am also vegan...what is the substitute you use in place of the fish? ("dowa dowa")
What is that green round thing you added?
Turkey berries
Please where can i get kontomire and kobi to buy
Most African store sell koobi. You can substitute the kontomire with spinach.
Plz is it good for a diabetic patient
It looks so good are you from nigeria?😘☺
I’m your sister from Ghana 😊🙏🏿 Thanks you for watching and commenting👍🏽
Nanaaba's Kitchen oh very nice place!☺
are those tomatoes?and what are those green seeds calledae those green peas?
They're called Turkey berries
i wish i was part of your children
Lady s, we are a family my dear 😘😘😘
What is the taste of turkey berries?
They taste like egg plants with a mild hint of sweetness and no residual bitterness. It’s added to dishes mainly for its nutritional and medicinal properties ie: rich in iron, great antioxidants and anti inflammatory properties, the list is endless. Thanks for such a great question!🙏🏿
Nanaaba's Kitchen thanks for sharing. I'm in central Florida. Where can I buy those? Just asking lol. I'd love to try this
They’re not easy to find fresh, because they’re super perishable, however, I found mine at a Ghanaian store which just happened to get a shipment in the very minute I walked into the store! Now, I can tell you that the African stores stock the canned ones always which I’ve used in the past and have been very happy with. They’re called kwawu Nsiswaa or abeduro.
Nanaaba's Kitchen thanks
Nanaaba did you receive my email
