Chopping into smaller pieces and blending takes more time Aunt Flo, you can cut in larger cubes, Put in boiling water and cook for 4 to 5minutes then blend it without water(for a much firmer/harder consistency). If you prefer a much lighter/softer consistency like myself, add some of the eggplant stock into the blender....it blends very smoothly as it's cooked and so soft and mushy ...no need to sieve in a cheese cloth or napkin. Pour back into the pot, add your spoonful of psyllium husk and stir until it's formed. Try my method Aunt Flo and let me know if you like it. It's a much softer and finer texture just like amala itself
Joy I already tried it ooo. Before I upload any video to RUclips, I try different methods and share the one I like, just like I said that I did not like using xanthan gum as binder for this. I did not like that method because it made the eggplant fufu tooooo soft for me. I couldn't even mold it. Also, I used physics to calculate that to and fro journey from pot > blender > back to pot and it was much more stressful for me than a single journey from blender > pot. LOL
Juliet Innocent Hi dear, where are you based? As that would determine where you can get the psyllium husk. If you are in Nigeria, there are keto vendors in different states which I can send you a list of names and numbers. However, if you are in Europe or north America, a lot of health shops carry it...not grocery stores, strictly health stores. Or you can order online too from websites like amazon or online health stores like bulkpowder and so many others. Hope that helps
Thanks for the recepie, I think using the fruit dehydrator method is much easier and time saver, cos after drying in fruit dehydrated than you can blend and you get out dried powder then you can bag and label different flavours and just make your choice of fufu on a go.
I can see endorsement on the way, please who else agrees with me? Atleast for the first time, we are seeing different plates compare to most Nigeria food vloggers. Biko chetakpam when the endorsement comes because it's just micro minutes away
I was taught that when preparing Large Eggplant it's best to sprinkle the sliced pieces with salt to extract the bitter tannins. Then they are washed (sometimes squeezed if you are going to fry them) and patted dry before making baba ganoush or parmigiana. I will try this both ways and tell you if there is a difference. Thanks for sharing. Blessings from New York City
Timothy Greer That's what I was taught too but after numerous experiments in the kitchen( I love cooking a lot), I found that except you intend on frying the eggplant, you do not need to salt the eggplant before roasting, cooking and grilling it. It will not impact the flavour or texture, hence you needn't be worried about the bitterness. This recipe involved cooking/boiling and I promise you, there's no bitterness to this, and none in the eggplant fries I roast in my oven and also none in the roasted eggplant I use for my vegan eggplant lasagne.
I have Digestion problem.food takes time to digest in my stomach,because of that I don't eat solid food during dinner This method will be very helpful for my health !! Thanks dear God bless Africans ❤️❤️
We have the exact same problem. People think I'm being dramatic when I say I don't eat swallows. The thing can make me feel like I swallowed a stone for 3 days!
I used ground cereal as my binder...the one i used is shredded wheat and it's perfect Even though I didn't try it with egg plant and note that I'm not on keto diet ...I suspect wheat is not keto friendly
Testimony time!!! I made this yesterday accompanied with banga soup with bitter leaves. This eggplant fufu issa hit for me. Kai! I felt so light yet filled. A favorite for now. Cauliflower fufu next!
Yayyyy! I'm glad to read that Zomiks! 💃💃💃 This eggplant fufu is great. I was telling Fantastic Favour that this is my favourite of all these veggie fufu recipes. I wonder if Carrot Fufu bound with xanthan gum will overthrow it when I get around to testing it.
All Nigerian Recipes good luck with that one lol😝😋 I'm still thrown off with the orange color. After the cauliflower fufu, maybe I'll give that of carrot a try 😫😋
Hello Flo. Quite frankly I love your road trip videos to death and you look great! I loved watching you walk through the villages of Nigeria in jeans (you ought to be a model:))! But, Im still hungry! So I found this terrific video of yours on cabbage fufu! Im in the process of trying it out for the first time. I just made green plantain fufu the other day. I also see like some other blogger said you can "fufu-ize" just about anything under the sun! That's exciting to me. I even saw a spinach fufu video title! So after I make this fufu Imbgoing to dive in and eat it! Right now all I need is some cheese clothe to drain the water from the pureed cabbage. I'll let you know how it comes out when Im done; hear? Have a blessed day! In your closing words; "Bye bye...see you sooon!!!" One love.
Wrapping hot food with nylon is not too healthy. Rather put in a plate allow to cool then judge the foo foo. Love your creativity in cooking. Already salivating.
I have to eat a lot of fiber due to constipation challenges, so I eat a lot of eggplants but stir fried. I will must try this with okra and spinach stew😋
You are the best , thank you again. I did not get the name of what you added for the thickness, you added a teaspoon. What was that again? Thanks in advance Sissy
Yes you can if you are not on a strict low carb diet. If you watch the whole low carb fufu series, you will see me mix and match different binding flours. Here you go: ruclips.net/p/PLuj-BP3hVVeQRV38G671rrJUDGzZjLvc7 There's also an FAQ video in the playlist.
Chidi Ezeakanwa all these veggy fufu meals store well in a working fridge for up to 48 hours so you can make servings for 3 lunches in one go if you eat a fufu meal every day. But if your fufu frequency is far between then yes, you have to make it every time.
Well done flo for your recipes, You put so much effort in all you do and make look so effortlessly easy. May the good Lord bless you and your beautiful family in Jesus name Amen Amen Amen 🙏 🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🥰😘😘
My thots too as a nutritionist. Most nutrients in veg are water and heat soluble. Anyway what they want to achieve Is fibre and no carb not necessarily nutrients
Which of these Fufu's store well in the fridge? I can go from dry garri to eba in 3 minutes using a microwave... I may be able to make a lot of these in advance, refrigerate them, and microwave later, but will be lying to myself if I want to make any of these from scratch when I'm already hungry lol
Haa that will be expensive if u in Lagos use 5 to 10k enter mile12 market u go buy plenty at a cheaper cos that's no 1 vegetable mrk. But I don't no if they ve moved to the new site now
Everything is good except to wrap it with a foil it not advisable at all because some particles of plastic stays in this healthy fufu which makes unhealthy. Stay out of plastic bravo you have done so well
Please can anyone tell me the shop to buy psyllium husk? Because I live in Holland and almost all the shopes I check, no one has it.can someone tell me the shop to get it, or big sis flo, can you tell me we're I can get it please?
![I.N "HALLUCINATION" | [Stray Kids : SKZ-PLAYER]](http://i.ytimg.com/vi/n5B5q1Hwt_U/mqdefault.jpg)
I am now a believer that you can fufulize anything.
Chichichikito that's what am see now Oo😃😃😄
Chichichikito what? Fufulize ?? Ohh God 😂😂😂
Chichichikito 🤣🤣😅
Chichichikito yes ooo
Yesooo
Thank you for showing us the way to prepare Nigerian recipes, for those following a keto-friendly diet.

Joy Ashi thanks dear will order online
Thanks Portia I like to eat something healthy from Africa. I think your method is straight forward. I wish you I could have you as a wife.. oo.
Thanks for the recepie, I think using the fruit dehydrator method is much easier and time saver, cos after drying in fruit dehydrated than you can blend and you get out dried powder then you can bag and label different flavours and just make your choice of fufu on a go.
Hello Jennifer, which dehydrator did you use to prepare cabbage or egg plant ? Thanks for sharing.
I hope using dehydrator won't reduce its nutritional value
Nice garden egg fufu. will try it. it really looks like Amala
I can see endorsement on the way, please who else agrees with me? Atleast for the first time, we are seeing different plates compare to most Nigeria food vloggers. Biko chetakpam when the endorsement comes because it's just micro minutes away
Sunrise Farms I claim it o! Anyanwu ututu daalu.
Amen to that.
Nice, but you should not put hot food in those plastic.
i just discovered your channel; and i'm in love already..you got me stuck here, i'm sending this to my friends

Thanks. I'll still probably go with the smaller younger eggplant, especially the male ones
Great! For those with diabetes like me, it is a welcome recipe! Thank you so much!
Wow! This is a very healthy alternative. Thanks for sharing sis 😍
LuvMattaz TV
I have Digestion problem.food takes time to digest in my stomach,because of that I don't eat solid food during dinner

We have the exact same problem. People think I'm being dramatic when I say I don't eat swallows. The thing can make me feel like I swallowed a stone for 3 days!
Anty Flo you are the best! God bless you and the work of your hands!
I used ground cereal as my binder...the one i used is shredded wheat and it's perfect

Thanks, I was looking for someone to confirm how this tastes.

She responded that it stored for 48hrs to someone else
Where can I see seeling husk in Nigeria
Can normal flour powder be used to mix as well? This is fantastic and very creative .
Yes you can if you are not on a strict low carb diet. If you watch the whole low carb fufu series, you will see me mix and match different binding flours. Here you go: ruclips.net/p/PLuj-BP3hVVeQRV38G671rrJUDGzZjLvc7
There's also an FAQ video in the playlist.
The goal here is to go low calorie as much as possible so I will suggest alternatives like psyllium husk.
Please can l use any oat of my choice?
Good day sister,pls what are the names of the items you used here?
I hope it wouldn't be bitter as garden egg used to be bitter
can i use ogbono to do the binding
May be. But the smell.
Thanks for the video nne. I think they knife you used to chop is filleting 🐟, so was awkward sort of to me. Btw very informative video.love you nne
Do I have to do this every time I want to eat garden egg fufu?
Chidi Ezeakanwa all these veggy fufu meals store well in a working fridge for up to 48 hours so you can make servings for 3 lunches in one go if you eat a fufu meal every day. But if your fufu frequency is far between then yes, you have to make it every time.
Thank you so much for this. I will really like to try it out. Do you know of any Keto vendor in Bauchi, from whom I can buy the Psyllium Husk?
Thanks for this tips 👍🏽👍🏽my white woman can easily eat
Well done flo for your recipes, You put so much effort in all you do and make look so effortlessly easy. May the good Lord bless you and your beautiful family in Jesus name Amen Amen Amen 🙏 🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🥰😘😘
Thanks I love it
I'm just wondering if the nutrients of these vegetables are lost during processing or not.
Same thought as you. Most of the nutrients in the cabbage was lost with the juice! With this one much of the nutrients are retained.
My thots too as a nutritionist. Most nutrients in veg are water and heat soluble. Anyway what they want to achieve Is fibre and no carb not necessarily nutrients
Wow!
This is incredible
I will try this next month when off work
Will surely try it, very healthy thanks Flo.
Please, do more low carbs food for Nigeria that not just fufu. Thanks
Hello Can a diabetic person eat the Eggplant fufu?
You can
Plz what is kito diet
Beautiful 😍
Madam Flo, I greet you. I enjoy your food making videos alot. For your info; I'm a dealer in African Food Items (foodstuffs) and need buyers oversea.
Hey that's very sweet I try that awsome😘😘😘
Can I use chicken to make fufu since we can fufulize anything
😀😀😀
What can I use for binding instead of psyllium husk or oats? Thanks
Pls can all these low carb food be preserved in d fridge after making into fufu 4 few days?
Maximum I would go is 48 hours.
Aunty Flo you can make soup from Eggplant too. Can you speak Espanol if yes do vídeos for your Espanol speaking followers
Which of these Fufu's store well in the fridge? I can go from dry garri to eba in 3 minutes using a microwave... I may be able to make a lot of these in advance, refrigerate them, and microwave later, but will be lying to myself if I want to make any of these from scratch when I'm already hungry lol
The aubergine and cabbage do well in the fridge in my experience
This tutorial is way too simple. Thanks so much!
Can i blend, dry and preserve it or i make fresh one each time ?
Rhema Ehimeh if you can get it bone dry, why not?
All Nigerian Recipes okay thanks
PLS CAN WE STORE THE DRAINED SHAFT AND HOW DO WE STORE IT. THANK YOU
NICE TIPS...
Can dehydrate it and blend it to flour
Thanks you for change it you are amazing
Please i want to see Apple 🍎🍏fufu. thank you!!!
🤣🤣🤣
There’s regular aubergines/eggplant in Lagos. I get it from Spar every week
Haa that will be expensive if u in Lagos use 5 to 10k enter mile12 market u go buy plenty at a cheaper cos that's no 1 vegetable mrk. But I don't no if they ve moved to the new site now
Does it tastes nice ?
Everything is good except to wrap it with a foil it not advisable at all because some particles of plastic stays in this healthy fufu which makes unhealthy. Stay out of plastic bravo you have done so well
Hi flo Is oat fufu not low carb ?? Pls reply ma,thank you
Jane Amadi not at all. Oatmeal is very high in carbs with Quaker oats having 67g of carbs per 100g.
Great job. Can you make ZUCCHINI fufu?
Yes.
I don't see the recipe for the vegetarian please send thank you
Please Aunty flo where can I get syllium husk or the equivalent of it here in the supermarkets of Spain I haven’t seen it
Jessica Obiang look for it in tiendas dietéticas. You will usually find such shops in shopping malls or on the streets. They sell supplements too.
All Nigerian Recipes now that you mentioned, you are right I will check on it tomorrow , thanks chao
Jessica Obiang yea. You may also need to show them an image of the pack because they pronounce it differently.
All Nigerian Recipes that’s fine but my other question is if it’s used for only this particular recipe or can I use it for other swallow foods ?
Jessica Obiang so far I've used it for tigernuts fufu, cabbage fufu and eggplant fufu and more on the way.
Please can anyone tell me the shop to buy psyllium husk? Because I live in Holland and almost all the shopes I check, no one has it.can someone tell me the shop to get it, or big sis flo, can you tell me we're I can get it please?
U can order it on line Amazon shop
U can order it on line Amazon shop ....Amazon shop has a lot of items that one can't find in others shop
At a health food store...
so any vegetable can be fufued wawu!!!!!
But the pillowcase may have ink color problem.
Use a white one or get a muslin cloth to strain instead
Ahahhahah this is mind blowing like wow😂😂😂
