Ukodo is a yam and unripe plantain dish of the Urhobo people of Nigeria. It is essentially a pottage, a soup of meat and vegetable with its base as the Nigerian pepper soup. It is usually used for marriage and burial ceremonies or as breakfast, particularly during the cold season. [1]
It is sometimes cooked with lemon grass and potash.[2] A poem by the Nigerian Chovwe Inisiagho-Ogbe describes both the ingredients and the process of cooking Ukodo in a light-hearted way.[2]
