Hi Guys,
So I was thinking of a recipe to put up, I wanted to put up one that I havent seen online yet, so I asked my Master Chef, my mum, and she told me about ojojo. You see I wont pretend that i have heard about this before but was ready for the challenge. The plan was that she was going to cook it and I was going to watch, but being the person I am I decided to try it out myself and use my family as my guinea pigs. Guess what it turned out nice…..Yay me. This is basically a snack that people apparently eat with Eko, weird I know. Personally I think it is fine on its own especially if it is prepared well. I hope you get to try it out and enjoy it as much as I did.

3/4 water yam
4 Hot Jamaican Pepper
1/2 Bulb Onion
