FRIENDS WITH BENEFITS



It been a long time… have you missed me?
I have a lot of recipes and places to write about. Truth is I don’t really know where to start from.
Ok let me start off with breakfast and work may way through the lunch tomorrow the dinner and desserts I have.

This is a really simple dish. I got my inspiration from  Dionne and Mona my friends from the university. D made me try this thing; the Ivoirians call it Dege (Pardon me if it has been misspelled).  Mona also likes it. I think its popular in northern Ghana too but I don't know what it is called there. I didn't get the recipe from someone who makes it but from eating it, I figured it is made somehow like this so I tried it out this way and I loved it. It’s very simple, delicious and highly nutritious.



Ingredients
Wheat
Sugar
Yoghurt (thick)
Cinnamon

Keep yoghurt in freezer for it to get very cold and almost looking like ice cream but not stone frozen
Cook wheat as you would take for breakfast leaving very little liquid in it (personally I like whole wheat and cooked not too soft)
Add some cinnamon when wheat is done and cool
Pour a cup of yogurt and add a ladle of wheat
Add some sugar to you taste
You can serve with some fruits and enjoy

RESTAURANT MEAT BALLS SAUCE

Image
With February being the month of sauces, this is a must try. It's good and very easy to make. I made it on Monday morning before work and I was early to work so u can be sure that it definitely is quick to make.  BON APPETITE  INGREDIENTS ¾ Pound Minced Meat 2 Onions 2 small Green Pepper Powdered Pepper Corn Flour 2 Garlic Flour 1 Egg METHOD Season meat with some salt, powdered pepper, (grounded ginger, garlic and onions). Add one egg and 2 heaped table spoonful of flour to meat, mix, drop small balls of meat on a baking tray and bake in a pre heated oven till it is done all through (the meat balls can be fried but cooking them in the oven is healthier). In pan, heat about 2 to 3 spoons of oil, fry sliced onions for less than a minute, add a half of the chopped garlic (be careful not to brown the garlic too much) then add green pepper. Mix a heaped tablespoon full of corn flour with glass of water and pour in then drop in meat balls. Add the rest of the garlic, some powdered...

GLOBAL WARMING

I was really craving for some mushrooms and when I asked where I could get some, I was told they were not in season yet. With all the noise I make about food, you would think I’d know when these things are in season, but it isn’t me; it is this confused weather. Let’s be real, this Global Warming business is no joke. We have been having “Hot and Cold”,” Yes and No” weather so long I’ve lost track of when it was supposed to start raining. So you can imagine how excited I was a when I went to the ‘Commercial Area’ and saw mushrooms sitting on a vegetable vendor’s table. They were not the wild ones but they would do. I could have gone with soup but it would take too long and I really wanted to eat some mushrooms so I made a Sausage and Mushroom sauce and it was great. SAUSAGE AND MUSHROOM SAUCE   Ingredients 8 or more Mushrooms 3 Sausages 2 medium sized Onions Butter/oil 1 large Green pepper Corn Flour 3 Garlic Powdered Pepper 1 thumb sized Ginger Curry Lemon pepper/ mixture of blac...
