    Semolina Puff Puff

    My Semolina puff puff recipe came as a result of me wanting to make puff puff and realizing I had run out of all purpose flour. I remembered that I had used semolina to make pancakes in the past and figured why not try the semo flour for puff puff. I am happy to say

    Afiame Soup Recipe

    Afiame soup is a beans based soup that is originally consumed in Edo state. It is very reminiscent of Gbegiri which is a beans soup consumed by the Yoruba people of Nigeria. The difference is in the ingredients used to achieve this finger licking meal. Before I go into the details of this recipe, I

    Coffee Tigernut Milk

    Coffee tigernut milk is not a combination that is new to many foodies. Some people have been making this combination for a very long time.

    Nigerian Barbecue Fish Recipe

    What really is Nigerian Barbecue fish? I mean what differentiates it from global recipes? The spice level? Or is it the fact that it is roasted to death on open fire too long? I think the differentiating factor I see sometimes is the addition of tatashe which is a different type of red bell pepper

    Shakara Yamarita

    Shakara Yamarita was as a result of serious cravings I had for yam, egg and smoked beef. I decided to indulge myself for breakfast yesterday before work. I know, I know, who makes such decadent breakfast before work? Well in my defense, I had chopped all the vegetables and smoked beef the night before. The
