- Hello! This video shows you how to make Abak Atama which is Calabar style Banga soup. Banga soup is a Nigerian soup made from palm fruit juice. Abak Atama is popular among the people of Cross River state and Akwa Ibom state. Atama leaves are used in this particular Banga soup hence the name Abak Atama.
The ingredients used for this Calabar style Banga soup are as follows
Ingredients
8 Cups fresh palm fruits
1 Cup Atama leaves
1kg Meat
1 Dried catfish
2 Cups periwinkle
1/2 Cup crayfish
1 Onion
6 Fresh pepper
1 Uyayak(Aidan fruit)
1 Cow skin(Pomo)
3 Seasoning cubes
Salt to taste
Water
Things to note:
If the meat and cow skin you are using are tough, let them cook properly before adding the palm fruit juice as the time it takes for the soup to be ready is not enough to properly cook and soften the meat or pomo(cow skin)
Abak Atama is similar to Ofe Aku and Delta Banga soup, the only difference is the spices and leaves used.
This Calabar style Banga soup is one of the best Nigerian soups you can taste. It has a unique taste, It is very delicious.
Abak Atama soup can be eaten with pounded yam, Semovita, fufu, Eba etc.

Please next time put your periwinkles in a bigger container to be able to watch it properly. Secondly, cook the periwinkles separate and remove the white foams that forms on top and remnant of diets, pick them with your hands into the soup don't pour it inside bc of some of the broken shells, then add it to your soup. Pour away the water.
Exactly how I use to prepare my periwinkle
Exactly the right way

This method is new. The way mum thought us how to prepare banga atama soup is after extraction of the palm kernel oil juice.
You put it to boil first before adding your ingredients not ingredients first before the banga juice but nice all the same. Hope it taste the same way with this method.
It tastes delicious. Thank you.
Yeah. That’s how I was taught how to cook it too but hers look really good too.
Liked for the effort....Beautiful
Sister thanks you so much

Calabar , how do I get the leaves here in owerri
What is Atama leaf called in another dilect or English?
You won't kill me, I repeat, you won't kill me. Now I'm hungry.
Nice❤. Please what other name for Atama leaves?
What benefits we can use in the palm fruit. First time to see this in the cooking. Interesting
The palm fruits contain antioxidants. Thank you.
Please was the soup left open on purpose while cooking or because of the pot so I can be guided
Looks delicious, well done ✅. Hmm, muscles are needed for the pounding, but it's worth it.
Thank you so much. It is.
Do you pound the Atama leaf?
Good morning ma, can I use afang in place of atama?
I just watched your video, it's lovely. I have always wanted to prepare this soup but the absence of palm fruit turned me off. How do I go about using canned palm fruit juice?
You use it the way you would the extracted fresh Palm fruit juice. Sorry for the late response. Thank you.
Can I use okazi leaf 🍃
Am looking for this soup...how do we talk
I’m trying this today. Wish me luck.
I hope it turned out great.
Yes. It’s perfect.
In fact, I made it again in Tuesday.
Can l use bitter leaf
Please wat is de essence of the uyayak??
Weldone mam you have done well, but when you are adding your atama you don't turn it you allow it boil probably b4 turning to avoid biiters thanks.
Thanks for the tip.
Please what is the atama leaves and Ayayaku called in English
Nice cook pls if someone want to cook for 50 people how may paint of fresh palm fruit can I use
Sorry I'm seeing this late. 3 of the paint buckets should do. How many did you end up using?
Can u list the ingredients,am not from calabar and pls buy what is atama leaf in English or lgbo let know
Please if I want to use the fresh atama leaf, do I have to wash it with cold water or warm water? To avoid being bitter
You can wash it with warm water.
warm water
Pls good morning,can u 0ut stockfish to it
Yes.
What is atama leave, or can it be any leave of chose?
It's the leaf commonly used for this soup. I've made a similar soup with a different type of leaf, I'll be publishing the video shortly.
Please, what does atama leaf looks like?
You can ask when you visit the local market, they'll be happy to show you some. Thank you.
What did you put after pouring the palm kernel water?
What we're you cutting into the soup after that?
You are not explaining things in detail.
Nah you dey cook
Nah me dey lick throat 😂
Please what is atama leaf is it same as sent leaf can one use opeyi in this soup?
It's not the same as Scent leaf. Ask for Atama leaves in the market, they will show you. Do you😁
@@OttarfaTV please can I use opeyi in cooking this soup?
Please what's atama leave? How do I get it
You can get Atama leaves in the local markets in Nigeria. If you are not in Nigeria, you can check the African shops in your area. I hope this helps.
Please someone should help out, there's something she cut, that is in Brown color, can't figure out the name.
The brown thing is Aidan fruit, aka Prekese, aka Uyayak.
Is this Atama leave same with Afang leaf?
No
is there a way i cannot have to go through the process of extracting the juice from the fresh palm fruits and just use palm oil instead?
Palm oil will not do it. They sell ready-made palm juice now, you can use that instead.
@@OttarfaTV Cool, I just found that. thanks for the great video
No, enjoy the process 😄😄😄
So atama is banga soup?
what kind cooking is this no pepper onion for steaming first of all before anything hmmmm
Always boil the Kpomo separate and throw away the water of the Kpomo bc most times it smells and the smell can spoil your soup.
We Calabars will not cook banga soup without dry fish, stockfish, meat, etc it is the dry fish and stockfish that will give what you want. Even if you miss any other thing, you shouldn't miss dryfish
EDI ntre
U sabi like this u no do ur own video, sabinus🙄🙄🙄🙄🙄
@@hopeabonyo6709 if you don't like advice. How will u go far in life. Nobody can give you advice bc u over sabi. Weldone
Did you just use soap to wash the Banga??? 😢
And I made video..😁😁
Oh that's great.
It was actually my first time of making something like that... But you made it very easy for me...💯
I'm glad it helped you. Thank you for the feedback.
I tried this but my soup turned out bitter because of the atama 😢
you wash the atama with hot water
Oh sorry about that.
Sis u be Calabar person I can see ur cooking style but the video u made for afang soup I didn't really like the iru you added.but the cooking method was bam
👍. Thank you sis. I appreciate your taking time out to watch my videos. Stay blessed.
No thickener used at all?...
None at all.
The ingredients are scary I thought its something I can make but after seeing the ingredients I've lost interest
Scary in what way?
You just don’t know how to cook.
