Àmàlà is a local indigenous Nigerian food, native to the Yoruba ethnic group in the western states of the country. It is made out of yam, cassava, or unripe plantain. For this meal we chose yam, which was peeled, sliced, cleaned, soaked in hot water, dried and then blended into a flour, which is called elubo.
The combination of amala, ewedu, gbegiri and assorted meat stew is called abula. This mouth watering dish will leave you salivating for more.
Had so much fun working with the @bantutastes team, go checkout some of their products.
Dacryodes edulis is also called Safou, Atanga, Ube, African Plum or Butter Fruit.
This fruit has been cultivated for thousands of years in Regions of central and western Africa.
This shiny waxy coating fruit can be lightly boiled or roasted and served as a side.
Cooked the Safou develops a buttery consistency and a slightly sour taste. The fragrance is similar to the scent of turpentine or citrus.
-The seed is NOT edible-
Rich in essential Aminoacides, Potassium, Calcium, Magnesium, Vitamins A & C makes Safou a Superfood!

Did you know? Across Igboland and among the Igbo's of Nigeria in the diaspora, the month of August, as it is now, is gladdened with the celebration of New Yam called iwa ji and iri ji ohuru.
We are getting rid of our old yam, to make room for the new yam coming next month. New Yam festival in Igboland of Nigeria or among the Igbo and their friends in Diaspora is always marked with pomp and pageantry. The breaking of the yam; and harvest is followed by thanksgiving. An offering is put forward and the people pray for renewed life as they eat the new yam.

There's nothing more tantalizing to our taste buds than the aroma of fresh BBQ!
Suya is the name given to skewered meat (mainly in Nigeria and Cameroon). It originates from the Hausa people, one of the largest ethnic groups in Nigeria and is the epitome of street food. The meat is marinated in a special "Yaji spice" and grilled to perfection. Although it is generally eaten alone, it can also be eaten with Garri(casavsa flakes) or with Agege Bread.
Suya is similar to the Kenyan dish "Nyamachoma" What's it called in your country?

For many of us some of the greatest influences for our love of cooking and food has been a mother figure. Several of my childhood memories include the breathtaking smell of cooking Ghanaian dishes.
My mom @homemadebyewurakua taught me that good food is about simplicity, fresh ingredients and a
lot of care and love. In fact, one of my favorite recipes from my mom is Kokonte with peanut butter soup. So light and simple but its how it is prepared,
cooked and garnished that makes it mouthwatering.
My weekends are mostly spent in the kitchen with my mother, helping to tackle her latest catering orders. Her touch is nostalgic and delicious and made with
love.
