In this generation, we're so focused on finding financially stable partners that we often overlook whether they're mentally and emotionally healthy, spiritually grounded, and brought up with strong values. We forget to consider if they truly understand the importance of family.

A simple mayonnaise recipe using ingredients that are commonly available in Nigeria:

Ingredients:
- 1 large egg yolk
- 1 teaspoon mustard (Dijon or regular mustard)
- 1 teaspoon white vinegar or lemon juice
- 1 cup vegetable oil (such as groundnut oil or sunflower oil)
- Salt to taste
- Optional: a pinch of sugar for added sweetness

Instructions:
1. Combine Ingredients: In a mixing bowl, whisk together the egg yolk, mustard, and vinegar or lemon juice until well combined.
2. Add Oil Slowly: Begin to add the oil very slowly, a few drops at a time, while constantly whisking. This helps to emulsify the mixture and create a thick, creamy texture.
3. Continue Whisking: As the mixture starts to thicken, you can add the oil a little more quickly, but continue to whisk constantly. NB: you can use a blender in place of whisking .
4. Season: Once all the oil is incorporated, season with salt and, if desired, a pinch of sugar. Adjust seasoning as needed.

Enjoy your homemade mayonnaise! ゚

- 2 medium onion, chopped
- 6 shombo
- 2 scotch bonnet peppers (or to taste)
- 2 tablespoons ground crayfish

# # # Instructions:
1. **Prepare the Beans**:
- Soak the peeled beans in water for about 30 minutes
- Blend the beans and shombo with enough water to form a smooth, thick paste.

2.- Break the coconut and grate the flesh. You can also blend the grated coconut with some water and then strain to extract the coconut milk. Use the milk and some of the grated coconut for added texture and flavor.

3.- Blend the scotch bonnet pepper and onion together until smooth.

4. - Pour the blended mixture of beans and shombo in a bowl .
- Add ground crayfish , stock (if available) and salt to taste.

- Adjust the seasoning if needed.

5. **Prepare Wrapping**:
- Cut the moimoi leaves for wrapping.

6. **Wrap and Fill**:
- Place a portion of the moimoi mixture in the center of each wrapping material.
- If using, add a slice of boiled egg in the middle of the mixture.
- Fold the wrapping tightly to prevent leaks.

7. **Steam the Moimoi**:
- Place the wrapped moimoi in a steamer or a large pot with a steam rack.
- Add enough water to the pot to create steam without submerging the moimoi.
- Cover the pot and steam for about 45 minutes to 1 hour, or until the moimoi is firm and cooked through.

8. **Serve**:
- Once cooked, remove the moimoi from the steamer and let it cool slightly.
- Unwrap and serve as a main dish or side dish.

Enjoy your coconut-infused moimoi!
