Notes: "Moi Moi is on like the other recipes you add ingredients to when cooking on cooker or stove. It's prepared cold, and all the adding ingredients is done off the cooker or stove. That is, once you forget to add one ingredient, and you have set up your cooking, there is no coming back to add it. And you can't add it when deciding it. So you have to confirm the taste before setting it on fire".

3. Set up the cooker or stove, place your pot on it and pour some water.

Notes : "The water level shouldn't be more than 1½ inching".

4. Dish the Moi moi mix into polythene wrapper, add chopped egg/bone marrow to each wrapped, knock it and set aside in a bowl.
