Just came back from Nigeria Lagos 2 weeks ago it was beautiful and humbling...I tasted some pretty awesome food there right off the streets...if you go there you will see why the environment looks this way but the food is delicious. If I eat at a restaurant in American I don't get to see the kitchen or the cook we just assume they are clean and the food was cooked properly....I learned a lot from Africa...the number one lesson I learned was GRATITUDE!
Am happy you enjoyed your stay in Nigeria 🇳🇬 YOU CANNOT VISIT NIGERIA AND NOT GET HUMBLE ALSO YOU BECOME GRATEFUL FOR THINGS YOU USED TO TAKE FOR GRANTED BEFORE. Make sure you visit again God bless.
OMG The work this guy puts into making this pounded yam.DID U SEE THE BACK ON THIS GUY?my word.WESTERN MEN PAY ATTENTION!!!no beer,no smoking....HARD CRAFT.
Oh yeah? I am from Germany and a Construction Builder since im 19 years and i am 29 now,workin around 8 to 12 hours everyday. Are u a racist? What did my ancestors,not working just sittin around? Your comment is offensive as fuck but yeah i can already hear the white blaming for all shit,its all our fault blabla. No,your race is just not the same as ours.
I'm from East Africa and I love the way pidgin English is spoken. Warri Pikin makes his culinary commentaries funny and entertaining. Thank goodness for the sub titles!
pounded yam with egusi soup is my favorite nigerian food those abudja yams are realy top quality i will ask for it next time thanks for the tip warri pikin great video
I remember peeling yam for my mum back then, the juice from the yam, itches the skin if it touches you. the guy peeling the yam, his skin must have gotten used to the itching.
I had the same experience the fisrt few times I peeled yam and so my mum advised me to rub fresh palm oil on my hands and arm whenever they itched from peeling yams. They have stopped itching since then. Hope this helps.
Me too 😁😂 but I got used to it, now when I see my younger cousins itching their hands because they peeled yam I will just laugh and tell them to go and bathe
I love how you report and I wish I can eat that pounded yam-not the rubbish we eat here in western world-they mix terrible stuffs inside and after eating you see your stomach growing like a pregnant man-only God will help us.
Now I'll have to go all the way the way to Nigeria to taste authentic pounded yam, that's processed by hand. Guess I better start saving my coins for the trip!
My bro. I need more places to try when I come home. So far I wan try that moi moi joint, the igbo guy that makes that cow leg, and add this to my list.
That is serious workout to pound that yam but I know it must be delicious. I have never had freshly made pounded yam, y'all making me hungry..Great job guys.♡♡♥♡
We have something like this in the USA called mashed or whipped potatoes. We use white potatoes that are not sweet like yams, it's mashed nd mixed with some butter and cream and salt and pepper. Very traditional American food. :)
Warri pikin, nice documentary on pounded yam. But there’s new technology in town like a blender or a grinder to spin it around and it will turned out just like regular pounded yam.
excellent and outstanding documentary, it makes me really appreciate being an African, i wish someone could design a machine that could peel those yams and pound them at an industrial scale, that would save these hard working people so much time and energy and it will also make the preparatory process more hygienic.
food processor can be used if the quantity u are making is not much and there are yam pounders (the machine)that what we call it)but it is so costly most of the small scale businesses can't afford it and some over-pampered people especially the men complain when it is used,because they prefer it been made in the mortar and pestle.
in the 70's National Yam Pounding machine existed. I think it was sold in Leventis. My mom has one from the 70's. However now folks use the food processor. There is nothing unhygienic about pounding yam in a mortar and pestle.
300 naira food not even up to 2 dollars, the food is very cheap, it's the reason African can become a better place to live. If it leaders will understand the drill and change things for good for them people, but them don't know so... One love and peace from Kingston Jamaica
That's why Africa people not lazy they have to work hard just to cook the American just but it in a blender that's why we get so lazy just push a button
ERM..no! The western world is not lazy, they are smart hence eventing blenders and all sorts of gadgets including what you are using to watch your hardworking Africans pounding yam
With the amount of hard effort that guy put into making that yam, I bet you that same food would cost not less than 20usd in a flashy restaurant overseas.
Omg what a hardworking guy please don't hurt yourself isn't it better you buy a Cuisinart blender it gets the job done faster and well though it's on a pricey side like 300 dollars from Macy's or Bloomingdale's but our sis in Spain Aunty Flo from All Nigerian recipes used it and it came out perfect. I'm not a big fan of pounded yam though I'm a garri girl.....

SANKOFA X 😂😂
Hahahaha too much ooo, I hate it but I love eating yam, I love Nigeria
I had the same experience the fisrt few times I peeled yam and so my mum advised me to rub fresh palm oil on my hands and arm whenever they itched from peeling yams. They have stopped itching since then. Hope this helps.
Me too 😁😂 but I got used to it, now when I see my younger cousins itching their hands because they peeled yam I will just laugh and tell them to go and bathe
U ask somebody to eat with you but you keeps the best part for yourself, and u said "i have blessed people this morning".
I love how you report and I wish I can eat that pounded yam-not the rubbish we eat here in western world-they mix terrible stuffs inside and after eating you see your stomach growing like a pregnant man-only God will help us.
CJ CJ 😂😂😭
You can’t get real food in western world only play food. You eat a little and you get fat, in Nigeria you eat a lot and still stay slim
It's truth to what u said ooo. Here in California, the food is the worst ever. So many pregnant men here ooo. Hahahaha
Hi you can actually make pounded yam with yam and mixer or a food processor... it turns out the same
🤣😂
I love to see men enjoying their food!!!!
Such a blessing gratitude and sharing! Very hard working people I wish to visit Africa one day, love how they take their time to prepare their food!
I miss relishing those pounded yam with goat stew , love from India
❤️
Now I'll have to go all the way the way to Nigeria to taste authentic pounded yam, that's processed by hand. Guess I better start saving my coins for the trip!

Hard working people, decent and respectful. It's a lot of work though.

For some reason, this street food looks much better than the McDonalds on Avenue des Champs-Élysées.
Terrific show. In Kenya we call this hussler life. It is popular.
🤡
Yum, fresh natural and sweat African food. God bless Africa. Ameen
We have something like this in the USA called mashed or whipped potatoes. We use white potatoes that are not sweet like yams, it's mashed nd mixed with some butter and cream and salt and pepper. Very traditional American food. :)

Warri pikin, nice documentary on pounded yam. But there’s new technology in town like a blender or a grinder to spin it around and it will turned out just like regular pounded yam.
But it's not the same as the one pounded in a mortar and pestle
We know about yam pounding machine 🙄but hand pounded is more better
Poundo!!! Delicious food ❤️
Yam... looks ssoooo Yuummmiiiiii......!!!
excellent and outstanding documentary, it makes me really appreciate being an African, i wish someone could design a machine that could peel those yams and pound them at an industrial scale, that would save these hard working people so much time and energy and it will also make the preparatory process more hygienic.

Take a drink everytime Warri says pounding yam.
Nice love my country Nigeria
Isaiah nah correct guy....omo warri...good sharing.....
It looks yummy.

I LOVE AFRICA, HOW WE USED TO HELP OUR PARENTS
We still help our parents. Its custom and tradition
We misss bollylomo😭😭😭😫
Love the presenter!
Literally, blood, sweat, and tears went into that yam.
💯
I still can't tell the deference between yam and cassava... I like your video from Australia
Both are tubers, but yam is bigger and fatter than cassava, the skin of yam is also thicker and drier, but they taste different, trust me
@@funmilayoaina2658 thanks so much aina I really appreciate your response
That's why Africa people not lazy they have to work hard just to cook the American just but it in a blender that's why we get so lazy just push a button
First world problems
Hahaha, Pam your one well as Afrika wey ok !before you no police go nok your dor in oyiboland.
Every continent has lazy ppl. Stop it!!!
ERM..no! The western world is not lazy, they are smart hence eventing blenders and all sorts of gadgets including what you are using to watch your hardworking Africans pounding yam
Thank God for subtitles. His accent is thick. But the food looks awesome
Pouded Yam and Fish Meat at Surulere Ijesha Road. Amazing !
😅
The number one best food in Edo state
I need more food arena...
With the amount of hard effort that guy put into making that yam, I bet you that same food would cost not less than 20usd in a flashy restaurant overseas.
Warri pikin, why bisay na only you dey chop food. Love the program from England
Love your videos.

Omg what a hardworking guy please don't hurt yourself isn't it better you buy a Cuisinart blender it gets the job done faster and well though it's on a pricey side like 300 dollars from Macy's or Bloomingdale's but our sis in Spain Aunty Flo from All Nigerian recipes used it and it came out perfect. I'm not a big fan of pounded yam though I'm a garri girl.....
Sexy Damsel The morter gives it a nice flavor,especially when its wrapped in leaf.
