I am a Nigerian and in Nigeria, there are diverse cultures. I am from Yoruba ethnic group of Nigeria. A very interesting set of people with symptous foods like iyan, fufu, eba, amala and so on... With different soups like ewedu, gbegiri, ila, orunla, egusi, efo and so on. The one common to my locality is amala and abula. Amala is made from grinded yam while abula is the combination of two soups: gbegiri and ewedu. Gbegiri is a soup made from beans and ewedu is a type of vegetable that is mashed to form paste like soup. This combination will leave your watery forever!

Iam from india....India is meant for its tradition.... different dishes with variety of taste are there.....idly ,dosa made from rice flour with coconut chutney makes the best combination.....rice, briyani, chapathi, sambhar, rasam where one can taste sweet, sour, salt ,mirchi, bitter all in one dish...People of India give more impotance to the food and hence they cultivate the needed food items in their own land and use it for their cooking

Amala is made by keeping an amount of water in a pot until it fully heated,after which we add our prefer flour and stir until a batter is formed;then add little water and let it heat for few more minutes then stir together until the batter fament the water.when there is no longer tracing of water and the batter is been neatly stirred;we can they pour in a warmer until is ready to be served.
Next is "Ewedu" this is the popular soup which is best in eating our Amala I.e banana flour,ewedu is a vegetable leaf plant commonly found in Nigeria ,especially among the Yoruba tribes,the leaves are be cut into pieces and wash in other to removed the dirty and pour in a boil water in a pot and cook for few minutes until the leaves becomes soft,then we add locust beans which is called iru among the Yoruba tribe,then we add little salt n cray fish.After which we mix until we form a paste of it.

In Austria it might be "Schnitzel" or "Knödel" (different dumplings)

But I am staying in South Africa now and here it is all about the "Braai". Barbecuing with your friends and family. (Often combined with watching rugby)
