Sometimes, local foods are considered healthy, savory and flavourful,
Example is these savory breadfruit paired with yellow corn.

Ukwa (breadfruit) can be prepared in so many amazing ways and one of those ways is pairing it with sweet yellow corn (a perfect combination),
I love eating ukwa dish without the addition of any ingredients including salt but pairing with sweet yellow corn has given me another great taste that i would always love to make for my family.
