PICK YOUR AREWA BREAKFAST Breakfast is a very important meal to start your day going and as such Doctors recommend good and steady eating of breakfast. The North is blessed with different mouth watering delicacies which are the perfect start for a good day. Below are the various Northern dishes which are usually eaten as breakfast 1. KOKO DA KOSAI (PAP AND AKARA) This is no doubt one of the most popular breakfast taken not just in the North but all over Nigeria. The pap is usually made from grains such as maize, millet, rice etc. This food is so delicious and yet very affordable which is why it is so popular among different classes of people. My favorite pap is definitely Kunun gyada (pap made from groundnut and rice). The Kosai (Akara) itself is made from beans and it's also called beans cake. 2. DUMAMEN TUWO This is also a very popular breakfast which is taken in the North. It is basically a left-over of tuwo which is warmed again in the morning. Some people even prefer dumamen tuwo to the freshly cooked tuwo, they claim that it is actually more delicious. I don't know if it is just me, but anytime I eat dumamen tuwo in the morning, I end up having a running stomach. Nevertheless, a lot of people really dig dumamen tuwo. 3. WAINA/MASA Oh my!. I'am writing this and salivating at the same time. I so much love waina and it can never do any wrong, Lol. Waina is also made from grains such as maize, rice e.t.c. Though a lot of people prefer using rice in preparing it. It can be eaten with soup assorted with meat and sumptuous bones or with sugar or kuli-kuli (groudnut cake). Seriously, waina is bae! 4. FURA DA NONO If u grew up in the North just like I did, you must have definitely come across Fura da nono. The Fulani people are synonymous with Fura da nono. I heard that in some certain states they take Fura for the whole day, really who will blame them considering how nutritious it is. Fura is usually milked from a cow and then it is processed before it is consumed. Some people have low tolerance for milk so it's not adviceable for such people to take fura as breakfast. Sometimes I wonder whether it is this Fura da nono that makes the Fulani people very beautiful. Hmmmmmmmm! 5. DAN WAKE Dan wake is a food which is constantly sought after. Although to me, it's not really ideal for breakfast, plenty folks see it differently and as such it is consumed as a breakfast meal. Dan wake is usually made from semovita or flour and kuka which is responsible for it's trademark green colour. All the same dan wake is a really delicious delicacy 6. WARA (SOYBEANS CAKE) Wara is made from soybeans and it is usually fried Though it can still be eaten even if it it is not fried. It can be eaten with just pepper or with soup. It can also be added to other food. Wara is no doubt a very popular delicacy in the North and some people don't mind it being their breakfast. It can also be eaten with cabbage or onions. It is very nutritious. 7. BANBARA (THE NUPE PANCAKE) Banbara is a delicacy common to the Nupe people. It is also made from soybeans and it can be taken with pap or it can be eaten just like that. It is usually fried and has the shape of a pancake or a scrambled egg. It is indeed a delicious delicacy. 8. SHAYI (TEA) For folks who cannot eat any of the breakfast mentioned above, there is the option of taking a nice hot tea. Tea is taken worldwide, though the North also have their own version which is usually prepared by the Buzaye people. The tea by the Buzaye people is popular for its medicinal qualities. 1 Like
