Adding stew to rice is a common practice. But there are so many other soups that combine really well with Boiled rice. For me I like vegetable sauce, marugbo soup and banga.

Apart from stew, which soup(s) do you eat with your rice.

Fried fish. If you don't think it is too early to talk about fried fish, tell us what you would most like do with fried fish. Are you cooking with it or eating it raw.

Take the taste of your fried fish to a whole new level by changing your way of seasoning fish before frying.

For a delicious change of taste, you can season your raw fish with salt, thyme and seasoning powder before frying.

The result is very nice.

It is possible to cook jollof rice without tomato paste. All you need to di is to get the correct ingredients in appropriate quantities and your jollof rice will be nice and red.

For 2 cups of rice here are the ingredients you need.
20 cayenne peppers/ shombo
8 tomatoes
4 bell peppers
3 onions
2 cups of meat stock of your choice
1 tablespoon salt
1and half tablespoon seasoning powder
1 tablespoon curry powder
1 tablespoon thyme

The jollof rice maybe a little bit spicy so if you don't like spicy food you can change the shombo to 6 - 10 red long peppers.

Red long peppers are sweet and not spicy.

Black soup from Ondo state. The two types black soup in Nigeria are ; Ondo state black soup and Edo state black soup.

These two types of soups are very different and they should not be mistaken for one another.

Ondo state black soup is majorly eaten by Ilaje. Ikale. apoi and the neighbouring towns and their indigenes in Ondo state. The major ingredient for this soup is marugbo leaves.

Hence the name marugbo soup as it is commonly called. It is also called Obe eweta. This soup is not bitter at all.

On the other hand, black soup from edo state is essentially a combinations of different medicinal plants. The addition of bitter leaf give this soup a slightly bitter taste.

I hope I have been able to explain the difference between these two types of black soups.

Please note that ther are other types of black soups in Ondo state with different ingredients but marugbo soup is used for this comparison because it is the most popular.

Other types of black soup in Ondo state include Obe gbanunu (commonly enjoyed by Ondo,Ekimogun people) Obe Oogun (enjoyed by owo people) and many more.

Feel free to tell us about the black soup you cook in your area in Ondo state.
