I’d like to first take a moment to thank everyone that has participated in my other contests. I enjoy hosting these contests and meeting people. I’ve met many new Steemians that are really interesting people it is great.
The contest:
BunnyPuncher is hungry and he doesn't know what to eat. So I'm going to ask you what are some of your favorite native dishes. What do you guys eat.
Rules:
#1) Leave a comment with at least one native dish or food that you like and eat fairly often. Since a single food might not be enough leave up to 3 foods or dishes.
I want you to resteemed this to spread the word. I'd be appreciative but won't make it a rule. I don't want to disqualify new people or people that forget. Followed me so you can see the results of the contest. I’m getting closer to 600 and I would be a happy bunny if I hit 600 or more with this contest.
Lastly it is your upvotes that will make the contests happen and grow in size if you want bigger prizes and more contests then upvoting posts from BunnyPuncher will make that happen.
Contests payouts
The payout will be as follows for this contest.
1st place - $10 SBD
2nd place - $5 SBD
3rd place - $2.5 SBD
The more entries the more winners!
For every 25 entries starting at 50 entries, we will add another winners' slot for $2.5 SBD up to 5 places.
75 entries = 4th place winning slot for $2.5 SBD
100 entries = 5th place winning slot for $2.5 SBD
I'll give out 1 SBD to people that comment and participate usually about 1 per day (could be more but I might forget a day so it isn't guaranteed). This isn't random just me picking out people so just want to disclose that fact. I pick good entries from people and usually lean toward people that don't already have a lot of SBD or Steem to try and make more difference to people that are new to SteemIt.
Cut off time for entry will be: Friday 9th 11:59pm.
At which time I'll pull the list of names after which entries won’t be added.

Okay im a NIGERIAN, a native of AKWAIBOM STATE.

The first one is called AFANG SOUP AND FUFU. You could visit a NIGERIAN restaurant over there and try it, you would really love it. and below is a picture👇
Below is my second favourite and its called EKPANG NKWUKWO👇
.
Thanks again for this opportunity @bunnypuncher.
Even if i dont get to win, im glad i was able to participate and would also participate in other @bunnypuncher contests.
Thank you for your kind words and joining the contest. My goal with the contests are to have everyone win. Information (web links, foods, new songs, etc), winners make some sbd, I get some followers. I'm putting to together the lists for web links and songs. I'll publish them soon. I would love to try some Nigerian as many people who entered are Nigerian but I don't think we have any where I live. But I will start looking for one.
Lol, you really should look for one because you sure would enjoy our dishes😉
That's really so kind of you.
We have very few people like you doing nice things for minnows like us, we really appreciate.
I can't wait, really looking forward to it.
Thanks again @bunnypuncher.
Since you recommended great dishes and are encouraging my contests you win the SBD for today.
Thanks a lot @bunnypuncher
I have no idea what is in the top dish? and the second one is that like dolmades or something. I like this contest, but I even more like the recipes from them.
What's in top dish is called AFANG SOUP and it's my native food.
And i don't know what DOLMADES is but it sounds interesting.
Is that your native food?
Afang? is that a vegetable? It looks like a seaweed? Dolmades are not my native food, it is greek and Turkish and it is vine leaves filled with minced meat and rice.
Lolz, yes it's a vegatable.
Actually two vegetables are used to make AFANG SOUP which are AFANG LEAF AND WATERLEAF.
And why you are not seeing the vegetables is because the meats have covered it.
Where do you stay? you could try it though and thank me later😉
PS. The DOLMADES sounds like a sweet food too, i shud also try it.
Do you have picture?
I live in Belgium and I have no idea what afang is :-) it looks like sponge? haha a picture from a dolmade I have to take from internet. I can show you in a month because I will be going to Crete again with their eastern. But for so long I will nick someone else's picture + recipe http://www.mygreekdish.com/recipe/greek-dolmades-recipe-stuffed-vine-leaves/
Woow the DOLMADES looks more like a food from my country called MOI MOI. And it's very nice.
Below is a link to the picture.👇
http://www.nairaland.com/993082/ukpo-oka-corn-pudding-recipe
aha !! they also call it wild spinach ?! But what do I see on top of the dish than, that with the holes in it? the sponge like stuff?
Lol, the sponge like thing is MEAT from COW.
In Nigeria we call it towel- funny rite.
Forgotten what part of the cow it is though.
P.S this contest has made me see and appreciate other country's delicacies.
Thanks to @bunnypuncher, he has such a big heart for minnows
I just followed you @janine-ariane and i'm going to check out your blog right away.
Cheers💪
Fried chiken, juice apple and coffe

This is Thailand famous dish, Pad Thai. I fairly eat this when I am super exhausted. This reminds me what a wonderful life I had in that beautiful country.
Fried rice is one of the best... it can be in any ways how it is done... this is super duper "a need atleast 3 times a week"

Hello @bunnypuncher every time I enjoy more of your contests here at steemit: p thanks for continuing with these good and simple ideas to interact with new steemians and get to know more besides winning some extra sbd. For this opportunity I bring you a traditional dish from my country Venezuela, popularly known as "Empanadas Venezolanas" (also in other countries of America you can find, with other names, textures and flavors, but in essence they are the same), they are made from corn and fried, stuffed with what we like most, cheese, ham, chicken stews, meat, fish, grains, etc. They are delicious, and very simple to prepare, so to start the day with a good breakfast accompanied by a glass of natural juice of passion fruit or guava, and Guasacaca sauce (garlic-based sauce, parsley, cilantro, avocado, etc. so natural or mixed with mayonnaise), uhmmm I'm hungry too xD
FUENTE
Thanks for the encouragement. I'm glad you like the contests. And your dishes look yummmy.
Empanadas are ♥ ♥ ♥.
Thanks for hosting this contest.
Ukrainian food.
From the first dishes the most popular dish is Ukrainian borsch.
It is prepared on a meat broth with potatoes, red beets, lard, carrots, onions, beans, cabbage, tomato and parsley, dill, bay leaf, garlic.
Of the second dishes, the most popular dish is dumplings.
Dumplings are made from dough and stuffing. The filling can be salty or sweet. The filling can be mashed potatoes, cottage cheese, stewed cabbage, mushrooms, sweet cottage cheese, cherries, strawberries, currants.
Of the third dishes, the most popular dish in Ukraine are syrniki.
They are prepared from flour, cottage cheese, eggs, sugar and fried in lean oil
Photos from my cookbook.
Here’s my entry @bunnypuncher! :)
The famous “Balut” of pinoy! It’s basically a fertilized duck egg paired with salt to enhance rhe taste.
The next one is the “Sizzling Sisig”. It can either be pork, chicken or beef. It usually has an egg on top. :)
For the dessert! We have this famous “Leche Flan”. It is basically a caramelized egg yolk. It is not baked but steamed . :)
Isn’t it mouth watering? Hehehe . Thank you for this opportunity and Congrats to your 600 and counting followers! Woohh!! :)
Yes my mouth is watering lol.
Traditional Ukrainian cuisine will appeal to all those who like to eat tasty food. Folk and proven recipes developed over the centuries, creating their own, unique color.
Geographical and climatic conditions of the habitat of the Ukrainian people were so diverse that they allowed to eat both plant products and livestock products.
I picked up three dishes that I strongly recommend to try.
Kapustnyak is another vegetable soup, and, as the name implies, it is based on cabbage. It can be fresh or sour, it depends on the sour taste of the dish.
Cabbage rolls - buckwheat porridge with minced meat or boiled millet with grated carrots, mushrooms and other vegetables wrapped in scalded cabbage leaves.
Nalisniki - sweet cottage cheese wrapped in pancakes. Pancakes, smeared with sour cream and folded into a pan, languish in the oven. Served with sour cream.
If you go to Kiev, do not forget to try the Kiev cutlets and Kiev cake.
Cabbage rolls are one of my favorite dishes. We are going to make them this week actually. So since you entry was on our meal plan you are todays winner of the SBD thanks for you contribution. Thanks for participating.
Thank you, @bunnypuncher. It's a good idea if you want to cook it. I like cabbage rolls too.
Thanks @bunnypuncher for the great contest, I followed, upvoted 100%, resteemed.
These are my favourite native dishes here in Ukraine:
Thank you for the follow, upvote and resteem. There is a local store here that sells items from Ukraine that we shop at. That's where we get ingredients for cabbage rolls and other dishes.
Hi bunny puncher, My choices are:
Kare Kare. It is a philippine stew complemented with savory peanut sauce.
Crispy Pata. A Filipino dish consisting of deep fried until golden crisp pork leg served with a soy-vinegar dip.
Pad Thai. A Thai dish essentially a stir fry noodles made with tofu, shrimp or chicken, garlic, peanuts with some vegetables. One of the healthiest food in thailand
Pad Thai is one of my favorites too. Great choice.
@bunnypuncher my favorite are
Balut
Kakanin
Sinigang
Hope you try this foods :)

Hi! @bunnypuncher..
I share u my favourit dishes I like so much...
1- Fried Pomfret Fish Sea Food..
2- Macroni Pasta..yummy its my favourit..
3 - Chicken Karahi...
Stuffed ginger & lime chicken breasts.
Take your thawed chicky boob/s and slice a pocket into it, lengthwise. Marinate your chicken bits in orange juice over night. Fry up some bacon in a large pan (one that you have a matching lid for is the best choice) -eat the bacon as a snack while you putter in the kitchen. While your bacon is cooking slice up some fresh ginger root and a couple of limes. Taker yer juicy pocketed boobs (the chicken bits, not human boobs!!!) and cram a few bits of ginger and lime in each one. Stab a toothpick or two or three in em to keep em "stitched up" while cooking. turn the heat up on that empty pan of bacon grease for a bit. Splash in a 1/4 cup of orange juice or water to deglaze the pan. (look up deglazing a fry pan for more fun bits of info and tips/tricks) All deglazed? set those stuffed boobs into the pan and turn the heat down to a simmer. Going low and slooooow.... Gas ranges setting: about 2, electrics run about 2.5 to 3. Sear each side briefly, then cover the pan with a lid. Check on em every 10 min or so to make sure they don't get too sticky-friendly with the pan. They are chicken boobs after all, and even fry pans LOOOOOOOVE boobs too.. just sayin... So after about 40 minutes they should be just about done. ***if the pan goes dry at any point, drop in a tablespoon of oil, grease, or butter and follow with a half cup of water/juice and check that each boob is not glued to the pan! -food safe oil or grease...yer cooking! not changing oil on a car or something.... note; this recipe has gotten me laid every time I make it. Your results may vary - I am not responsible for what may happen to you upon completing this recipe yourself. heh I've never taken pics of the food because, well... I have always had better things to do after dinner than taking photos of food. ;-)
Nothing like a good EMPANADA native dish from our country Venezuela after a bike session in the beach!!
My instagram to see more pics
Im From Venezuela and my favorite food is:
Pabellon
Arepas:
Empanadas:
I'm from Honduras, one of the most sold foods here, at least where I live are baleadas, which are just flour tortillas filled with fried beans and grated local white cheese, then you have the more expensive and varied ones, which are the main baleada with the addition of maybe scrambled eggs, avocado, fried pork meat, sausage etc. Some just include one of these additions but you can ask for as many as you like.
Since we are going native, let's do this!
The first knockout food is what we call Ofe achara na akpuruakpu mgbam in Igbo...
'Ofe' means soup, 'achara' is a kind of vegetable which gets thick is broken and added to the soup, and 'akpuruakpu' literally means moulded and 'mgbam' is melon seeds. So this soup is made of the special vegetable and moulded (mashed) melon seeds, with other ingredients of course.
It is taken with a preferred swallow. The combination looks something like this
Image from All Nigerian Recipe
Another great food is the Ofe Akwu. As earlier explained, 'Ofe' is soup, and 'Akwu' means palmoil nut.
The soul's main ingredient is the palmoil nut from which the palmoil is freshly squeezed out of. And the basil leaf gives it a special flavor too. It is taken with rice and looks something like this
Image from Dooney's Kitchen
This third food looks simple, but it is special.
It is called asaro in Yoruba, and is made by mashing boiling yam tubers. It needs a special touch, and if you can't make it, you'd make a mess of the recipe.
It looks like this
Image from areachops.com
I have shared some of my favorites. I am from the Eastern part of Nigeria, and I am an Igbo lady, but I was born and bred in the Western part of Nigeria, and so my second tribe can be said to be the Yoruba tribe.
I shared of both worlds.
Hi there! I'm from Maracaibo city in Venezuela and we love to eat plantain every single day. So I will show you what I would eat during my day.
Breakfast: Tequeyoyo
They are made with flour and fill with cheese and plantain.
Lunch: My favorite: Plantain cake.
It's similar to Lasagna but we use fried plantain instead of pasta.
Dinner: Patacón
This dish is like a burger but instead of bread we use Plantain and inside we use a different type of meat.
The downfall is that if you eat this everyday you will probably gain a lot of weight but you will definitely be happy all day long!
Lol what is plantain?
Those are plantains!
ohw! we call them bake banana when baked it is called in Holland, I think Indonesian influence Pisang goreng.
Yes, exactly they are bake banana and they have different names around the world! I love this contest becuase allows to share our cultures like you and me right now. Thanks for sharing!
But I don't kwon if I'm participating on the contest because the @bunnypuncher haven't give a reply to my entry :(
he will later :-) i think. I love the contest for the same reason! i just have nothing to share yet. :-)

My personal favorite or at least one of them. Waakye (basically rice cooked with beans) with egg, sliced, avocado some stew and shito (our version of a hot sauce or so I like to think. And meat littered across the surface of the food

Next is fufu, which is pounded tuber (mostly cassava or cocoyam) and or unripe plantain; but in this case pounded cassava and unripe plantain, and soup which is mostly groundnut, palm nut or light soup. Sometimes, a mixture of both. Not forgetting the most important part; the meat. Different kinds, different flavors. You eat this for lunch, no need for supper... 😊
Source
My last entry is Banku (essentially made from corn and cassava dough) and Okra Soup or Stew. And not forgetting the meat. In our part of the world, we don't joke with our meat at all... 😎
