Isi Ewu
Isi ewu is an Igbo goat-head delicacy tossed in glossy palm oil sauce with ehu seed, crayfish, chile, onions, and bitter utazi. It is rich, spicy, and built for sharing as a bar snack.
π Recipe adapted from Wikidata (Dish)
Simmer the goat head with onion and salt until the meat is tender enough to pull from the bone.
Warm palm oil gently, then whisk in a little strained potash water until the sauce thickens and turns glossy.
Stir in ground ehu, crayfish, chopped Scotch bonnet, and a splash of the goat cooking broth.
Fold the goat pieces through the sauce until every surface is coated and heated through.
Finish with sliced onion, shredded utazi, and ugba, then serve hot in a shallow bowl.
