1. Noodles and Bread

Yes, you read that right. Everyone who has tried it has sworn by the deliciousness of noodles and bread sandwiches. Whether it’s slice bread or Agege bread, the trick is to make your noodles moist and spicy and balance them with your bread.

You can even go the extra mile and decide to toast it.

2. White Rice and Okra Soup

Load up that bowl of white rice with a generous serving of your okra soup, complete with your favorite proteins. You can come back and testify in the comments after you’ve tried it.

A Google search would show you that rice and okra is a common food combination across the world, it’s just that okra has been stereotyped as soup for swallow in Nigeria.

3. Ewa Agoyin and Eba

If you haven’t tried this one, whatever you planned to have as your next meal, cancel! A smooth bowl of hot ewa agoyin, paired with Eba  (some even prefer cold eba), balance on your sitting room floor and gnom-gnom away. Just don’t be selfish about the tasty experience and tell someone about it. Spread this gospel.

4. Kuli Kuli and Bread

Just think of it as bread and Peanut Butter with a lot more crunch. Of course the indigenous flavours in kuli kuli> peanut butter, yes or yes?

5. Puff Puff and Stew

See this one, no need for plenty talk. In my opinion, fish stew goes best in this equation. However, whatever stew you choose, it’s a banger.
