1) Jollof rice
What it is: Not whatever the hellfire Jamie Oliver said it was. Jollof’s base ingredients is dependably rice, and “TPO” (tomato, pepper and onion) in addition to scotch bonnets. It’s customisable as per your taste: make it more hotter than the sun, or as gentle as an European’s palette (jk, however not by any stretch of the imagination). Include blended vegetables in the event that you need (kindly don’t). Best appreciated with fried dodo (see underneath) and a chilly Supermalt.
Why its magnificent: It’s unadulterated, flavourful carbs, and poses a flavor like God’s affection. What’s not magnificent about that?
2) Akara
What it is: Deep browned bean cakes.
Why its wonderful: These delightful protein-stuffed fritters are light, making them perfect for breakfast (as a side with ogi, maybe) or for the duration of the day as a nibble. The vast majority used peeled beans, ground and mixed with onions and flavors, and fry in vegetable oil. They taste astounding when eaten with Agege bread.
