FLUFFY STRAWBERRY PANCAKE

Pancake served with fruits and a drizzle of maple syrup


Another way I love to serve Pancakes

INGREDIENTS

2 cups All purpose flour
450 ml full cream milk
1/2 cup granulated sugar
2 tsp baking powder
A pinch of salt
1/2 tsp baking soda
2 whole eggs
1/2 tsp nutmeg (optional)
8-10 strawberries (chopped)
1/4 cup oil (I used sunflower oil)
Butter for greasing the pan
Fruits to serve

Direction

Get a large clean dry bowl, sift in all the dry ingredients and set aside.

In a separate bowl, add all the wet ingredients and whisk, now make a well in the middle of the dry ingredients, add the wet ingredients and whisk well until well blended in but be careful not to over mix.

Preheat pan on medium heat, grease pan with butter, scoop in the pancake batter, add the strawberry toppings (optional) cook for 2-3 minutes or until bubbles begin to form on the top then its time to flip. Cook the other side for the same amount of time and remove and place on paper towel.

Serve hot with fruits and a drizzle of maple syrup, peanut butter, hazelnut spread or honey.

NB: Having a few lumps in the batter is okay

You can use blueberries, raspberries or nuts like almonds, hazelnuts etc for your topping.

Banana Orange Cake.

This cake was made with love a product of 2020 lockdown. It's being a crazy year so far but I decided I'll stay positive, strong and productive as we wait to see what will come out of year 2020. I'm so happy to share this delicious orange flavour banana cake here. Let me know if you try this recipe, I'm sure you'll love it just like my family and I did x • In making this recipe you have to make sure everything you need is set and ready to go. • Minimal mixing is required to get a good result. • Try NOT to hip the flour in the measuring cup, scooping in the flour into the cup with a spoon and level out the top. • You can use any other oil you prefer but not flavoured oil as this will take away from the take and flavour of the cake after baking. RECIPE. 2+1/2 cups self raising flour.  1/4 cup cornflour.  1 tsp baking powder.  1 tsp baking soda.  1/4 tsp salt. 1 cup caster sugar.  4 very ripe bananas. 3 eggs. 1/2 cup melted butter + 1/2 cup sunflower oil 1 tsp vanilla

Freshly Cooked Sea Food Okra Soup

I made this very delicious fresh Okra soup with Salmon fish, prawns, pack of mixed sea food, fresh spinach, okra, sweet long pepper, a tablespoon of red oil, crayfish, scotch bonnet, knorr seasoning cube and salt to taste. This was quick and easy to cook because I prepped everything the day before, packed them in small containers and stored in the fridge. My kids love to eat our native foods, pounded yam and Egusi soup/ Okra soup is their all time favourite. I love the fact that they are enjoying good food instead of asking for chips and nuggets all the time. I actually achieved cutting out fast food cravings by cooking different meals and stocking the fridge which helped me serve them varieties and then fast food became a treat for them during most weekends if they remember to ask...goals. You can have a bowl of this freshness alone or pair with pounded yam (poundo) garri, oatmeal, agidi, cornmeal, boiled yam or white rice.
 EASY PUFF PASTRY RECIPE This recipe came about after I tried the usual folding method and found it tedious. I needed something quick, easy and less stressful. All you need is 4 ingredients to make a flaky delicious puff pastry for sausage rolls or pies. The most important tip is to make sure your ingredients are very cold, it helps a lot with this method.                                                                     INGREDIENTS. 250g Unsalted Butter (cut butter into small chunks, spread out on a lined baking tray and freeze overnight) 2 1/2 Cups Plain flour Pinch of salt 1/2 cup chilled milk 1 egg                                                             INSTRUCTIONS 1. Add flour, butter and salt in a food processor and whizz till the butter break up into tiny little pieces you almost can't see it easily. 2.
