I Love Plantain! (Dodo)


My love for Plantain (dodo) is beyond my control, it is one food I can eat anytime of the day and the best part is being able to cook/make it in different ways. Plantain is so versatile that it can be eaten ripe or unripe, fried, boiled or even made into a snack (Plantain Chip/Kpekere) and even as a snack, its still very delicious when flavoured with salt, ginger, pepper or sugar, fried slightly ripe...yum.

I'm sharing photos of some of my delicious plantain meals.

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 vani...

WELCOME 2018! HAPPY NEW YEAR!!!

Hey! Happy New Year everyone, welcome to 2018 a special year of favour, blessings, grace, positive energy, happiness, love and great achievements. Did anyone make any New Year Resolutions? I personally did not make any resolutions per say because as a human being I struggle just like anyone else would so I just take everyday as it comes while praying for grace and strength to keep doing the right thing no matter how bad things might get especially with situations you have absolutely no control over, you leave it to fate. Life is all about what you make of it no matter how little. I try to appreciate the littlest things in life while hoping for the bigger things to fall into place. CONTENTMENT is key to a happy life trust me I know that for sure, it is without a doubt the best way to go through your daily life. Looking at other peoples lifestyle and trying to "Keep Up with The Joneses" when you honestly know that you cant afford that lifestyle will only push you into doin...
