Description
Nothing makes a more southern meal than okra and tomatoes. Whether you eat them stewed or fried, these vegetables are stapes here in the South. I remember when I was a kid, my grandmother's helper (more like a second Granma) was named Macy. Macy would make some of the best fried okra you have ever tasted.

Here in Nigeria,okra or okra is a staple. It is shredded into very tiny bits...little potash added and little water added and bring to boil. The finished soup draws. Oh yes, you can add dry shrimps,fish, what have you and a delicious soup is ready to be eaten with "eba" ( google to find what that means in Yoruba culture...ha ha ... ;-) Lovely glowing shot.

Is Eba anything like Ugali from the East African countries? I would like to try it sometime.
