Happy Easter dearest one!
Happy Easter dear friends!
Hello Sunshine!
Thank you for your love and support. I am blessed to enjoy our incredible community. As we celebrate the resurrection, here’s wishing you a joyous Easter, blessed with great new beginnings with wonderful food to warm your heart.
Raising a toast to you with this refreshingly zingy glass of Hibiscus & Pomegranate Chapman. 🌺 Inspired by a Nigerian classic and with not one but two recipes in Africana cookbook, because I am extra like that!

This herby roast from the Christmas edition of Delicious Magazine is one I am keen to share as an excellent dish for spring. Try the Herby Tamarind Lamb with Baked Jollof 🌿

Excerpt from Delicious Magazine
“This recipe is inspired by the original jollof, called benachin, which means ‘one pot’ in Wolof, a language from Senegal and The Gambia. It’s a dish that has travelled across West Africa and beyond. As well as the traditional elements of rice and vegetables in a rich tomato and pepper sauce, the lamb in my recipe comes with ‘rof’, a Senegalese green stuffing with added rosemary and tamarind. The incredible juices of the lamb flavour the jollof and vegetables. Be sure to enjoy the edges of smoky burnt rice, a delicacy in itself.”
Fix a jug of the hibiscus chapman as seen below with my sugar free and modern recipe alongside the classic of my childhood. Whatever you choose, it is sure to make a splash!
