AFANG - Tripe Stew from West Africa
Without any iota of doubt, soups are a big part of the African cuisine, in fact, it is wise to say that African soups are the main attraction of cuisine in the continent.
African soups can be made with a combination of vegetables and ingredients that are native to the countries where they are most eaten.
Very many African soups are usually eaten with other food staples such as rice, fufu, banku, sadza, garri, pounded yam, and so on.
Below are some of our favorite soups from different African countries.
1. Okra soup
Tumblr media
Okra soup is a popular west African dish with okra as its main ingredient. Although this deliciously slimy dish can be cooked with the local palm oil, it is also a good choice for people who are wary of adding oil to their soups.
2. Abenkwan
Tumblr media
Abenkwan is a Ghanaian soup made from the nuts of the palm tree. The pulp is extracted from the palm fruits and cooked in combination with spices and preferred meat of choice.
Abenkwan has an earthy flavor thanks to the addition of the palm fruit pulp (which is different from the palm oil). Serve warm with rice balls or Kokonte and you will be satisfied to the moons and back.
3. Muriwo na Nyama
Tumblr media
Muriwo na nyama is also known as leafy-beefy or high fields stew. It is native to Zimbabwe, highly nutritious and cn be eaten with sadza.
4. Pepper soup
Tumblr media
Pepper soup is a spicy African soup that will make your taste buds tingle with excitement. The soup is gotten from the stock of the meat or fish used. It is also spiced with local ingredients, giving it a tantalizing aroma and taste that will make you hungry even if you just had dinner.
For the best experience, have your pepper soup hot–not scalding hot of course– and thank us later.
5. Agushie/Egusi soup
Tumblr media
Agushie (Ghana)/Egusi(Nigeria) is a delicious soup cooked with shelled melon seeds. The method of preparation might differ across the different regions in which this soup is eaten but it ultimately includes the addition of leafy greens, seasoning and palm oil. In Nigeria, its best served with freshly pounded yam.
6. Domoda
Tumblr media
Domoda is the Gambia’s national dish, second only to Yassa. It is a yummy soup cooked with unsweetened peanut butter. It might also contain sweet potatoes. Domoda is better enjoyed with rice.
7. Afang
Tumblr media
Afang is a delightful and satisfying soup from southern Nigeria. It is similar to the eru soup in Cameroon. They both make use of the afang/okazi leaves. However, the afang leaves are pounded and used in addition to water leaf. Afang soup is rich in deliciousness and best served hot with fufu and lots of meat.
8. Ndole
Tumblr media
Ndole is another leafy vegetable soup with its home in Cameroon. It is often considered the national dish of the central African country. It’s a creamy and nutritious soup cooked with pureed peanuts and bitter leaf.
9. Afia efere/Ofe nsala
Tumblr media
In the Nigerian local languages of Annang and Igbo, afia efere and ofe nsala respectively mean ‘white soup’ in English. Technically, this mouth-watering spicy soup should be called ‘brown soup’ but where’s the fun in that? It is apparently called ‘white’ for the lack of palm oil use.
10. Ewedu Soup
Tumblr media
Ewedu is a Nigerian soup which is popular among the Yorubas. It’s a leafy vegetable soup but unlike other African soups, the greens (jute leaves) are pureed and cooked with nothing more than salt, locust beans and often potash.
It is usually served in addition to peppered stews (as pictured above) or gbegiri (beans soup). Yorubas love to eat this with amala, a starchy swallow made from yam peels and sometimes plantains.

Red queen characters favorite Thanksgiving sides?
Of course! These are mostly things my family has at thanksgiving... except for Mare/the Barrows I did my research for that.
Cal: pumpkin puree straight off mare's tiddies-- KIDDING. Mash potatoes/stuffing like the white boi he is.
Mare: sopaipillas. (technically a dessert but they're on the table so she eats all of them)
Maven: asparagus wrapped in prosciutto like that bougie bitch he is.
Kilorn: scallops wrapped in bacon (or wrapped in anything really). Or little pastry puffs with fish things inside them. (Ceviche if he's at the barrow's.)
Farley: she doesn't like the holiday, but if she celebrates Friendsgiving she loves a good bread roll with butter (also a sucker for pumpkin pie, especially if shade makes it)
Gisa: sweet tooth like Mare, she'll enjoy sopaipillas also. (but she loves a good yam dish)
Shade: tamales. The ones his mama makes and refuses to give him the recipe for.
Cameron: YAMS, WITH MARSHMELLOWS MELTED ALL OVER THAT BITCH.
Evangeline: she loves a light dish, so cranberries (the yummy pudding kind)
Iris: the blood of her enemies. Something bougie like maven, probably fancy, something like a pumpkin dish of some sort that's super creative.
Elara: burnt fucking dry ass turkey. She can choke on it too for all I care.

Gratin de Légumes Pays (Sweet Potato and Yam Gratin) (Vegetarian)
Tumblr media
Last Summer, we holidayed in Guadeloupe. After a busy day of hiking and discovering we had a late lunch of cold beers and hot gratin de légumes pays. My take on this yummy and flavourful Gratin de Légumes Pays, takes me back to these fantastic Summer days under the Caribbean sun!
Ingredients (serves 6 to 8):
1 (2.5- pound)  cooked yam (this, not sweet potatoes)
1 large sweet potato
2 tablespoons unsalted butter
1 small onion
1/2 red onion
1/2 teaspoon fennel seeds
1/2 teaspoon cumin seeds
2 sprigs flat-leaf parsley
6 sprigs fresh thyme
1 1/2 teaspoon Colombo spice
1 can coconut milk
1 teaspoon coarse sea salt
1 teaspoon freshly ground pepper
4 teaspoons pure cane sugar
2 ounces mature Cheddar
Cube yams, and place in a large bowl. Set aside.
Peel sweet potato, cut into think slices, and boil, covered in a small pot of salted boiling water until cooked. Drain thoroughly, saving a cup of the cooking water, and let cool slightly.
Generously butter a large baking dish; set aside. Melt remaining butter in a large saucepan, over medium heat.
Finely chop onion and red onion, and add to the butter. Cook, stirring often, until softened, about 3 minutes. Add fennel seeds and cumin seeds, and cook, 1 minute more. Finely chop parsley, and add to the saucepan, along with thyme leaves. Cook, 1 minute. Add Colombo spice, and cook another minute. Finally stir in coconut milk. And bring to the boil. Stir in reserved sweet potato water, coarse sea salt, black pepper and cane sugar, and cook, stirring often until mixture thickens ever so slightly. Remove from heat.
Cube cooled sweet potato, and combine sweet potato and yam in buttered baking dish, tossing well to mix. Arrange into an even layer.
Cover with coconut  cream mixture, pouring it all over. Grate Cheddar generously on top. Place baking dish in the middle of the hot oven, and cook, at 400°F (200°C), for 30 minutes
Serve Gratin de Légumes Pays hot.

Purple Sweet Potato Pie
I love baking pie for Thanksgiving, but I’m not really a pumpkin pie fan so I like to switch it up from year to year. This year I had decided to make a sweet potato pie for two reasons, 1) because I live in a southern state, and 2) because they’re super yummy!
So off I went to the grocery store to purchase the ingredients needed. I walked in and what was the very 1st thing I stumbled upon? PURPLE sweet potatoes! I had never seen, or even heard, of purple sweet potatoes before, and since I have a number of family members who go bonkers for anything and everything purple, I just knew I had to get them. Purple Sweet Potato Pie - What a fun addition to the holiday table!
Items used to make this recipe:
disposable food-safe gloves https://amzn.to/2JdW67y
food processor https://amzn.to/36p6LVm
large open star tip https://amzn.to/39xXYT9
large disposable pastry bags https://amzn.to/33xWWCK
half sheet pan https://amzn.to/3moqr1p
Purple Sweet Potato Pie
makes 1 pie (9-inch)
Printable Recipe
Ingredients
For the Pie Filling:
1 pound cooked and peeled purple sweet potatoes (see cooking directions below)
12 once can evaporated milk
1/3 cup granulated sugar
2 large eggs
4 tablespoons unsalted butter, melted and cooled
2 teaspoons freshly squeezed lemon juice
1 teaspoon pure vanilla extract
1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
1/2 teaspoon fine salt
1/4 teaspoon ground nutmeg
1/4 teaspoon ground ginger
1/4 teaspoon ground cloves
1 unbaked 9-inch pie shell (try my easy recipe here)
For the Meringue Topping:
2 egg whites, room temperature
1/4 teaspoon vanilla bean paste
big pinch of cream of tartar
small pinch of fine salt
1/3 cup superfine sugar
Directions
To make the pie filling:
Preheat oven to 350F and place rack in lower center position.
In the bowl of a food processor, combine until completely smooth the peeled sweet potatoes, evaporated milk, sugar, eggs, butter, lemon juice, vanilla extract, cinnamon, salt, nutmeg, ginger, and cloves; scraping down the sides of the bowl as needed.
Pour mixture into prepared pie shell; place on a sheet pan and bake for 50-60 minutes or until set (a very slight giggle in the very center of the pie is fine).
Remove pie from oven and cool to room temperature before chilling in an airtight container for several hours (overnight is even better).
To make the meringue topping:
In a medium bowl or in the bowl of a stand mixer, place the egg whites, cream of tartar, vanilla bean paste, and salt; use a fork or whisk to mix the ingredients and break up the eggs until they're frothy.
Use a hand mixer or the whip attachment of a stand mixer to whip egg whites until they reach soft peaks; sprinkle sugar in slowly and continue whipping until the whites are glossy and they reach the stiff peak stage.
Place meringue in a large pastry bag fitted with a large round tip or large open star tip and pipe kisses around the top circumference of the pie; place under broiler for 2-3 minutes until meringue begins to brown on the edges, watching very carefully to prevent burning. Serve immediately.
Notes:
To bake purple sweet potatoes: wash potatoes and pierce with a knife or fork in several places to keep the potatoes from exploding in the oven. Place prepared potatoes in a baking dish and cover with foil; bake for 1 hour. Cool purple sweet potatoes, then peel skin off and discard - the skin should be easy to remove by hand or with a paring knife (you’ll definitely want to protect your hands with disposable gloves).
DO NOT add meringue until just before serving - it’s highly hygroscopic and will become wet/watery if added too early.
If you have a favorite sweet potato pie recipe, feel free to substitute purple sweet potatoes for the usual orange ones next time you make it.
Topic for discussion at your next holiday gathering: Sweet Potatoes vs Yams. Although some people refer to sweet potatoes as yams, true yams are found in Africa and Asia. Just about every orange, yellow, and now purple-flesh “yam” sold in the US is actually a sweet potato.

Spinach stew
In Ghana, we call spinach stew “kontomire“, and this stew is so popular because of how delicious it is. We add goat meat, beef, and various fish like shrimp, dried salt fish, crab, etc. It’s basically a yummy feast and it goes well with boiled yam or plantain. It’s a very layered recipe from people adding seafood, pureed pumpkin/watermelon seeds, beef, pork and even eggs. This is a very basic…

2 DAYSSSS
Have you every pureed pot roast soup? You probably shouldn’t if you haven’t yet. It is....gross.  Silver lining: when I am old (and thin) and toothless, I’ll know what to expect.  
Today though, is clear liquids day. Clear liquids until Tuesday! 
I had a Friendsgiving with our D&D group last night. I was actually kind of worried and a tad depressed before we went.  I knew there would be lots of yummy stuff.  Dr. Bariatric was right when he said it would be harder around the holidays. Not really because of all the eating temptations, for me anyway. Seriously, there’s something about seeing your food pureed into one single form and weird color that tempers your desire for all the things.  Try to imagine finger painting and mixing all of your colors into one giant paint mound. Keep that color in your mind, and then imagine your food in finger paint form. There you go. Let us all have a moment of silence for our dearly departed appetite. 
My issue was more about the people pleasing aspect of food. It’s easy to forget about  it when you’re at home in your own little bariatric bubble.  Food is the universal expression of love. In the South especially, food is a bite into someone’s soul.  Be it scrambled eggs or great-grandmas special pie recipe-if you don’t eat it, you’re rejecting the love.  Food has it’s a unique way of connecting people.  It is also a universal cure for social anxiety. Don’t know what to say? Eat a lil smokie.  Want to end the conversation? Stuff a cake in your face.   What happens when you take that security blanket away? 
So we get there, and all the foods are waiting.  Incredibly,. I didn’t eat all the foods. As a hostess myself, I tend to get annoyed with picky eaters. However, I’ve never been more thankful to see plain yams sitting on the stove in all their bland glory. Guess what I had.  Yams and strawberries. Mashed and silky.  The beauty is that no one was offended, no one gave me crap, and everyone was pretty supportive. Yay friends! 
I made it the full night without touching anything. I will admit I did have a few small sips of soda, but it was too sweet. WHO AM I?

10 Healthy Homemade Child Food Concepts
Making your own child food offers a variety of advantages. It conserves loan and shopping time. Making child food can be untidy, however it's lots of enjoyable. Most importantly, homemade baby food can be super-healthy. There are so lots of fruits,
veggies, and grains that babies can
have in their first year of life, a number of which aren't found in common store-bought infant food. Here, Healthy Homemade Infant Foods Here are my top 10 preferred sources for homemade infant foods. All of these are healthy in terms of vitamins, minerals, fiber, and other nutrients. When possible, I have a link to the dietary details page for these veggies, grains, and fruits. Have a look, get yourself a blender/steamer (read our infant food mill reviews), and start making your own child food today!
1. Avocado
Did you know that avocados take a full 2 years to grow before they're harvested? They're worth the wait, though. A preferred food in the home, avocados make for a creamy, bright-colored child food that makes sure to be a hit. It's a natural source of
> folate, vitamin K, and other nutrients. They likewise provide monounsaturated fats and, in my opinion, are rather delicious. Use ripe, unbruised avocados and serve fresh for the finest results.2.
Squash
As soon as, when our daughter had started solid foods, I acquired a 20-pound winter squash at a farmer's market. It made a huge amount of wonderfully bright orange child food that she ate all winter season long. Winter season squash is a vitamin A superfood!.?. !! It's easy to grow and affordable with a moderate, sweet taste comparable to
sweet potato.3. Sweet
Potatoes I knew that sweet potatoes, or yams, were a great option for child food due to the fact that of the sweet taste, but I was shocked to discover how healthy they are. With the skin on, sweet potatoes offer 438 %of day-to-day vitamin A and 37 %of vitamin C. They're inexpensive, easy to prepare and
puree. Infants enjoy the intense color, smooth consistency, and of course the sweet taste of yams.4.
Pumpkin
The jack-o-lantern isn't simply for Halloween. Pumpkin makes a fantastic child food. Dark orange veggies like carrots and pumpkins are packed with Vitamin A & numerous other crucial nutrients. Canned pumpkin makes infant food making super-convenient, and will warm your child up for future treats like pumpkin bread.5.
Sweet Peas
Peas are a great example of infant food that's A Lot better when you make it at house. One cup of peas offers calcium, Vitamin A and C and Iron; it has more protein than a tablespoon of peanut butter (which you can't provide child for a couple of years anyway).
Fresh peas are best, followed by frozen peas, however you can even utilized canned peas to make your own child food. When they're older, your children will take pleasure in consuming them as finger foods/ throwing them below the high chair.6.
Whole-grain Oatmeal
If there's one strong food that appears to help children sleep better at night, it's single-grain cereal. A lot of pediatricians advise beginning with rice since it's the least allergenic, but oatmeal is normally # 2. Whole-grain oatmeal is an exceptional source of fiber and a terrific choice for thickening normally-runny homemade child foods like sweet potatoes and carrots.
Plus, you can "title =" whole-grain-rolled-oats" href =" http://get-your-baby-to-sleep.com/go/whole-grain-rolled-oats/" > buy whole-grain oatmeal from Amazon on the cheap. Another reason to try it! 7. Barley I wished to feature a 2nd grain on this list, and I chose barley due to the fact that it's not what you believe of initially when it comes to child food. You want a severe whole grain to thicken baby food? This one's for you. It's naturally rich in dietary fiber, especially soluble fiber which was shown in href=http://
" http://www.barleyfoods.org/nutrition.html" target=" _ blank" > medical trials assists combat diabetes. Unlike some grains, barley has fiber throughout the kernel, so removing the husk does not remove all of the dietary worth. Another fantastic thing you can "
color: #c 00000; "title =" Pearled Barley on
Amazon" href=" http://get-your-baby-to-sleep.com/go/arrowhead-pearled-barley" > purchase from Amazon.8. Sweet Corn How could I forget America's favorite crop? Sweet corn is another child favorite in our home; I marvel it's not utilized in more baby foods. One cup of corn contains 51 %of your daily fiber and 37% of your day-to-day vitamin C. It's yummy by itself as well as combined with a stewed meat such as chicken.9.
Mango
The mango is a great fruit for making homemade baby food due to the fact that it's not over-the-top sweet. Sure, it has sugar as all fruits do, however it's naturally free of fat, salt, and cholesterol. One cup of mango has 20 various vitamins and minerals, most significantly vitamin C (100% DV) and vitamin A (35% DV).
It's a "velvety" consistency so perfect for blending, and readily available year-round.10.
Plums or Prunes
Lastly, I put among the healthiest however under-used fruits for making your own infant food at home: plums. You can get these fresh plums in the summer season and fall, and dried plums (prunes) you can get year-round.
Prunes are particularly nutrient-rich; one cup has 3 grams of fiber, 293 mg of potassium, and 16 mg of magnesium, all for less than 100 calories.5 Reasons To Make Your Own Child Food
Best baby food makers
With those ten yummy reasons above, you probably don't need any more inspiration to begin making your own infant food. If you require one last push, consider these things:
