Nigeria is actually 3 countries in one. One culture is the igbo in the East. To the west you have the Euroba (not sure how it's spelt.) And in the North you have the Housas who are muslims. With this information you'll be more equiped to find out.

Natural peanut butter 1 to 1 1/2 cup
Rice, cooked according to directions
Side dishes suggested chopped tomatoes, chopped onions, chopped pineapple
Orange slices
Chopped papaya
Grated coconut
Chopped bananas (add lemon or orange juice to prevent darkening)
Nigerians sprinkle with hot pepper.

Bring chicken to boil with about 2 quart water. Add salt, hot pepper, onion and garlic. Simmer until tender cool. Debone. Using 1/2 cup peanut butter per lb. of chicken (before cooking weight) mix in hot broth until a smooth sauce is formed. Add chicken and cook slowly for at least half an hour. Can be cooked for hours in crockpot. If a thicker gravy is preferred thicken with cornstarch. Salt to taste. Serve over hot cooked rice with side dishes of tropical fruits as you would curry. "Ground nuts" is the Nigerian name for peanuts.

Answer 3

They eat a lot of thin soups. Soups cooked w/ a thin, dried otu fish imported from Northern Africa... very salty and very strongly-flavored w/ vegetables and grains in it. Not overly high in protein... the fish is more for flavor. Not sure what it's called, sorry.
