  • Puff-puff recipe
    Puff-puff is a popular Nigerian snack made from deep-fried dough. Here’s a simple step-by-step guide to making soft and fluffy puff-puff.

    Ingredients (for about 20 puff-puffs)

    2 cups of all-purpose flour

    2 teaspoons of dry yeast

    ½ cup of sugar (adjust to taste)

    ½ teaspoon of salt

    1 teaspoon of nutmeg (optional, for flavor)

    1¼ cups of warm water

    Vegetable oil (for frying)


    Instructions

    Step 1: Activate the Yeast

    1. In a small bowl, mix the yeast with 2 tablespoons of warm water and a pinch of sugar.


    2. Let it sit for about 5–10 minutes until it becomes foamy. This shows the yeast is active.



    Step 2: Mix the Batter

    1. In a large bowl, combine the flour, sugar, salt, and nutmeg (if using).


    2. Pour in the activated yeast mixture.


    3. Gradually add the warm water while stirring continuously until you get a smooth, thick batter (not too watery).


    4. Cover the bowl with a clean kitchen towel or plastic wrap.


    5. Let the batter rise in a warm place for 45 minutes to 1 hour until it doubles in size.



    Step 3: Fry the Puff-Puff

    1. Heat vegetable oil in a deep pan (about 3 inches deep) on medium heat.


    2. Once the oil is hot (around 350°F/175°C), scoop small portions of the batter using your hand or a spoon and drop them into the oil.


    3. Fry in batches without overcrowding the pan.


    4. Stir occasionally and fry until golden brown on all sides (about 3–5 minutes per batch).


    5. Remove with a slotted spoon and place on a paper towel to drain excess oil.



    Step 4: Serve and Enjoy!

    Serve warm with a sprinkle of powdered sugar or dip in chocolate, honey, or spicy pepper sauce.


    Would you like a variation, such as adding milk, eggs, or flavors like vanilla?

  • Tonight, my aunt's bar was brimming with customers, some drinking while others munched on peppered beef.

    I had come over to help her with the customers because most of her staff had left for the holiday.

    Just by the door of the bar sat a lone man, with 7 empty bottles of Heineken on the table before him.

    I had been serving him since he arrived shortly before 3 p.m., with his last order being ten minutes ago, around 7:15. The man never ordered meat, nor rice, nor the several grilled fish on our menu, just beer, beer, and more beer.

    I was beginning to worry that another sip from his almost-finished bottle would cause his already inflated stomach to burst, when the man called for me. I rushed over from the serving counter to meet him by the door.

    Me: You called me, sir.

    Him: *slurring* Yeeesss, cooome. Come... *pointing to other customers at their own tables*... Are those people or are those chairs or am I just drunk?

    Me: *smiling* Those are people, sir.

    Him: If theeey're people, then give theeem drinks, one bottle for each. If they're just chairs, organize them 'cause more people are coming.

    Me: *smiling cause I've just landed a good one* So, I should give everyone one bottle of drink?

    Him: Yes.

    Me: Okay, sir... *tries to leave but the man pulls me back by my shirt*...

    Him: Do you drinnnk, boyyy?

    Me: Yes, sir, I do. I do.

    Him: Then take a bottle, too. Take five if you want.

    Me: *smiling* Thank you so much, sir. Thank you.

    Him: Don't worry. I'm just happppyy today. Happyyy... *I try to leave but he calls me back again*... Wait, boy, is that a person passing on the road?... *he's pointing outside*...

    Me: Yes, sir.

    Him: Then give him a drink. One for the road... *looks back*... Who's that person behind your counter?

    Me: That's my aunt, sir.

    Him: Give her one bottle, too. One bottle for everyone.

    Me: Okay, sir... *I leave to our counter and begin serving everyone drink, courtesy of the man. Each person I offer a drink turns to the man with thanks blabbing from their oily lips*

    —10:25 p.m.—

    Most of the people in the bar have already left, but the man is still sitting near the door by himself. Since we'll be closing soon, I go over to offer him his bills...

    Me: *handing him the bill* This is your bill, sir.

    Him: *peers at the paper* So all these are the bills of the beers you gave?

    Me: Yes, sir.

    Him: How many did I take from here?

    Me: You took 8 bottles, sir. The remaining 61 bottles are the ones I gave out.

    Him: So, I'm also paying for the drinks you gave out?

    Me: *smiling* Yes, sir.

    Him: Are you stupīd? Why did you give people drinks without collecting money from them?

    Me: *heart starts pounding* But you asked me to give it to them, sir.

    Him: Did I ever say I was going to pay for their drinks, eh? Moreover, must you do what I asked you to do? So, if I ask you to jump into fire now, you'll do it.

    Me: But sir—

    Him: Don't but sir me... *slams some notes on the table*... This is 5 thousand naira for the 8 bottles of beers I drank. You can collect the rest of the money from the people you gave out the drinks to.

  • DROPPED OUT OF SCHOOL AND STARTED TOMATOES, MY JOURNEY
    My Tomato Farming Journey

    I dropped out of school because I couldn’t afford the fees, and farming was the only option left for me. It became my only means of supporting my poor parents.

    I chose tomato farming because it has a shorter growth cycle and requires less investment compared to other crops and vegetables.

    My first year was a complete mess, but I didn’t give up because I was still learning. By the second year, I started making progress, and now, in my third year, I am finally achieving the excellent results I have always dreamed of.

    I have been able to recruit a few workers, creating employment opportunities for over 50 people. My family and siblings also work with me and continue to support my journey.

    Today, I sell tomatoes both locally and internationally. I also process some into tomato powder and paste. I sun-dry tomatoes to make pepper and use high-quality machines to process the paste for better preservation and export.

    Dropping out of school wasn’t my choice, but I don’t regret it. I encourage young people like me to explore the soil and build their own success. Agriculture is wealth

  • You will see women like this, walking from phase 1 to Phase 2, tens or hundreds of kilometers, hawking groundnut, banana, fish, oranges, tomatoes, pepper even mango.

    Remember, they choose to earn legitimately. Olosho dey ooh, but dem no do.

    You then call them, and start to display your price negotiating skills.

    "Aunty, you no gree five yam for five hundred?" She looks up at you, anger in her soul but desperation in her eyes.

    "Bros, please help me buy it. Five tubers of yam, ₦500? It's ₦1800 Sir, please"

    Then, you asked her to either sell it ₦800 or she leaves with it. She left, thinking a lot in her head. She has to feed, nobody had bought yam from her in two days.

    Then, she came back to you. "Uncle, take it ₦1000".

    You still shook your head, mbah. "₦800 las las!!" She sold it. Her life depended on it.

    But the same YOU will walk into a supermarket to form Obi Cubana, and buy a loaf of bread labelled ₦3000 and even 'dash' the girls on the counter a ₦500 note!

    The same loaf of bread you will get at ₦1200 at joebest bakery shop.

    And you're asking God to bless you?

    Chief, between that lady who hawks under the sun, trying to sell goods not worth ₦5000 and the babe on the counter using iPhone X... who deserves your pity?

    Let heavens know your answer so God can choose who to pity.

  • Sometime last year, this woman that I know to a large extent was passing my restaurant with a man. She saw me, stopped and was dragging the man playfully that he should come let them eat at my place, that my food is nice. (she laughs a lot and is very free by nature)
    This man rebuffed her like a child saying, paraphrased “na anywhere you see you go wan enter? If you no fit hold yourself, dey go, you go meet me for house” I wish I was making this post as a video, maybe I would be able to explain with the actual demonstration and face expression on this man’s face. You would think he’s talking to a five year old.
    I felt embarrassed for her, and a little bad that they didn’t come to eat that day, but I shrugged it off. She on the other hand just stylishly said they will come another time, while laughing and placing her hand on his shoulder as they walked away.

    ***
    For context, she’s a single mother. Her husband died years ago, so I believe this is a new relationship as I’ve not seen her with any man till that day.

    I had to bring up the above 👆🏻 in order for you to understand better my experience day before yesterday’s night.

    So on Tuesday Night, this lady and the man walked into my restaurant. They asked what I had and I told them. Then the man asked the lady to choose for him. She chose Native soup. Next thing this man said something in Igbo (of course not knowing I’m Igbo) which is weird cos the name of my restaurant would give anyone an idea. He said “do these people know how to cook soup, let alone native soup. That who knows how it will even taste. That it’s not to decorate a place that is the issue, but for the food to have taste, not this nonsense they cook” I don’t even know what he meant by “they” or where he assumed I was from.
    And the way he said this, very very condescending! The woman started telling him in hush tone that he shouldn’t have said that. He should have waited to taste the food first.

    I ignored and simply told them the price of food plus that they will have to pay before I serve. He started ranting again. That why would he pay for something he hasn’t seen, then asking the lady if that’s how we do here. The lady gave me sign of “I should please serve and not worry” I could tell she was embarrassed and being that I know her to her house, I made an exception.

    I served them food. I had actually thought it was the lady who was eating so I placed it before her. They eyes he gave me eh. The lady just moved the tray to him and now said she wanted pepper soup and malt. He angrily told her to eat what he’s eating. She argued that it’s late and she doesn’t want to eat fufu at night. He then told her to starve then as he’s not buying anything else.
    All these transpired in Igbo.

    Dear God, was I boiling inside 🤦🏼‍♀️
    But I kept my cool of course. I’ve had my share of very rude customers, just that I was feeling for the lady. She had no choice than to join him to eat.
    When it was time to pay, he started complaining about the price. How he won’t come back if I don’t give him discount (remember I made the price known from onset o)
    When he saw I wasn’t responding, he brought out cash. I stood up to collect it, he took it back. Said he would transfer, I called account for him, it didn’t go through. He started telling the lady to pay, she said she wasn’t with cash and didn’t bring her phone.
    He said he needed to use the cash and couldn’t give it to me. Omo eh…
    Eventually, he gave me the cash as he didn’t see any other way forward.
    The lady told me thank you in Igbo and that I am doing well. I responded in Igbo too and he then said “so she’s Igbo and acting like oyibo” The way he even refers to me like I’m not there is what’s funny.

    What brought about this post is that when they were leaving, the woman came back to apologize. Telling me I shouldn’t mind him and all he did, that it’s how he is. I then asked “why be with someone who constantly disrespects and embarrasses you, especially in public” she said it’s cos he’s trying financially. That he just paid all her children’s school fees, so the load has been lifted off of her a little. I told her it’s well as she joyfully left. Like this lady is so full of joy and laughter that I don’t feel she deserves him. But who am I to have a say. He’s probably great in many other areas I’m not seeing so I wish them well.

If you no fit hold yourself, dey go, you go meet me for house” I wish I was making this post as a video, maybe I would be able to explain with the actual demonstration and face expression on this man’s face. You would think he’s talking to a five year old. I felt embarrassed for her, and a little bad that they didn’t come to eat that day, but I shrugged it off. She on the other hand just stylishly said they will come another time, while laughing and placing her hand on his shoulder as they walked away. *** For context, she’s a single mother. Her husband died years ago, so I believe this is a new relationship as I’ve not seen her with any man till that day. I had to bring up the above 👆🏻 in order for you to understand better my experience day before yesterday’s night. So on Tuesday Night, this lady and the man walked into my restaurant. They asked what I had and I told them. Then the man asked the lady to choose for him. She chose Native soup. Next thing this man said something in Igbo (of course not knowing I’m Igbo) which is weird cos the name of my restaurant would give anyone an idea. He said “do these people know how to cook soup, let alone native soup. That who knows how it will even taste. That it’s not to decorate a place that is the issue, but for the food to have taste, not this nonsense they cook” I don’t even know what he meant by “they” or where he assumed I was from. And the way he said this, very very condescending! The woman started telling him in hush tone that he shouldn’t have said that. He should have waited to taste the food first. I ignored and simply told them the price of food plus that they will have to pay before I serve. He started ranting again. That why would he pay for something he hasn’t seen, then asking the lady if that’s how we do here. The lady gave me sign of “I should please serve and not worry” I could tell she was embarrassed and being that I know her to her house, I made an exception. I served them food. I had actually thought it was the lady who was eating so I placed it before her. They eyes he gave me eh. The lady just moved the tray to him and now said she wanted pepper soup and malt. He angrily told her to eat what he’s eating. She argued that it’s late and she doesn’t want to eat fufu at night. He then told her to starve then as he’s not buying anything else. All these transpired in Igbo. Dear God, was I boiling inside 🤦🏼‍♀️ But I kept my cool of course. I’ve had my share of very rude customers, just that I was feeling for the lady. She had no choice than to join him to eat. When it was time to pay, he started complaining about the price. How he won’t come back if I don’t give him discount (remember I made the price known from onset o) When he saw I wasn’t responding, he brought out cash. I stood up to collect it, he took it back. Said he would transfer, I called account for him, it didn’t go through. He started telling the lady to pay, she said she wasn’t with cash and didn’t bring her phone. He said he needed to use the cash and couldn’t give it to me. Omo eh… Eventually, he gave me the cash as he didn’t see any other way forward. The lady told me thank you in Igbo and that I am doing well. I responded in Igbo too and he then said “so she’s Igbo and acting like oyibo” The way he even refers to me like I’m not there is what’s funny. What brought about this post is that when they were leaving, the woman came back to apologize. Telling me I shouldn’t mind him and all he did, that it’s how he is. I then asked “why be with someone who constantly disrespects and embarrasses you, especially in public” she said it’s cos he’s trying financially. That he just paid all her children’s school fees, so the load has been lifted off of her a little. I told her it’s well as she joyfully left. Like this lady is so full of joy and laughter that I don’t feel she deserves him. But who am I to have a say. He’s probably great in many other areas I’m not seeing so I wish them well. #myrestaurauntseries #portharcourtfoodvendor #ofeakwuboss
