Okay, I'm making this again. I can't get enough of it. Indian food is always a hit. I didn't notice that lonely slice of fennel sitting all by itself 🤣 It was very late at night and I was tired. I just went for the shot and went to bed after my taste-test.

Hey, thanks a lot to the people who hyped the video. I was away for so long that I wasn't familiar with that feature. I was so confused when I saw it in my analytics 🤦🏿‍♂️ Anyway, here's a link to the video: https://youtu.be/6rvD_Iq9yjM
Thanks a lot for watching!

Hello Everyone. Rice and Beans! This is a recipe you’re probably not familiar with. It's not the Mexican or Caribbean style of making rice and beans. Those are far more easier to make and are equally as delicious. This recipe is a tiny bit more complex, but very much worth it. It's usually eaten as a main course rather than a side dish.
This rice and beans is one of the many variations of the classic West African recipe. It’s a dish I love to make when I need something quick and gourmet. Give it a try when you get the time. I bet you’ll love it too. Watch the full video for more details on how to make this delicious dish. I'm currently working on some mouth watering recipes. Keep your eyes open for them in the coming weeks. I’ll see you all next week. Enjoy 😉

Nothing can come between West Africans and their Beans (black-eyed peas) and Fried Plantains. Someone asked me if this was red red… to be frank, I don’t even know what that is. When I looked it up, I noticed it was similar, but no, it’s not the same recipe.

This is an ancient recipe passed down from our forefathers. It’s a dish you’d come home to after that sweet and short football (soccer) game. A dish you’d look forward to, while blistering your thumbs on that Playstation One or two controller... Need For Speed: Underground? Anyone? Soul Reaver? Tekken? Okay, never mind.

It’s is a rich, nutrient dense, beans (or peas) stew with large chunks of sweet potatoes (white, not orange colored) and fried plantains. It starts with a healthy dose of palm oil sourced ethically and sustainably from Mom & Pop farms in West Africa. If you’re not comfortable using palm oil, you can use my Annatto oil. This is a Vegan 🌱 recipe. It's not recommended for Alkaline Vegans.
