Thanks a lot.really yummy.can i use more of the okazi with the same amount of ingredients would it still give the same taste.tanks
You are right DIDI..Ofor is white unless you mix it with red oil to prevent it from molding in the soup.
This is def a must do….loves it!!!
Offor is whitish and sometimes maybe mistaken 4 egusi. I have offor currently to prepare ofe uha with. Offor is never yellow unless u mixed it with somethg else while blending. Thanks.
