Happy New Year in April?
Nigerians say “anywhere belle face na front” So if I say Happy new year in April will I be out of order considering this saying? It has been a whirlwind of activities since the year started. From events to shoots to taking over a kitchen as executive chef (shhhh!) A lot!!!!! has been happening. Let
Suya Pasta
I had shared this simple Suya Pasta recipe on my instagram page almost three months ago and it was a hit! I think it was the simplicity of a lunch or dinner recipe that is ready in 20 minutes that made it a hit. It may also have been coming out of quarantine, we needed
Chocolate Yam Cookies
African yams have so much diversity. One minute, they are chocolate yam cookies, the next minute, they are pounded yam.

LEMONGRASS SYRUP RECIPE
Lemongrass syrup is something I typically use for pancakes, puff puff, drink mixes etc. It is so versatile in its applications that you can even use it for ice cream. There are a lot of ingredients that grow in abundance here in Nigeria but I feel like we do not take advantage of. How many
LEMONGRASS COCONUT PUFF PUFF

Blueberry Lemon Puff Puff
In this blog post, I will be adding to my puff puff series this delectable blueberry lemon puff puff recipe. I am so proud of myself that I have kept to this journey of puff puff discovery and the possibility of flavours that come with it. If this is your first post you are landing
Banana Peanut Butter Puff Puff
Banana peanut butter puff puff is me coming with my tails in between my legs begging for your forgiveness from the Iru Puff Puff episode. There were threats and there were chants. Placards and stones. Ok! Maybe I am exaggerating a little bit but it didn’t sit well with a number of people. I can
Iru Puff Puff
“Iru Puff Puff?” When you are ready with your placards to march against what Afrolems is doing to puff puff, I will be right there with you. On a serious note, I did promise a journey and for me I have to explore both the easy and difficult journeys. This one was particularly difficult for
