Here’s the collection:
Sauteed Greens
Green/ Amaranth leaves are sauteed with smoky fish and vegetables to give a tasty result.
Use spinach, kale or other greens for a similar result

One of my favourite recipes with salad. Combine sliced mangoes with a simple scent leaf sauce and you’re in heaven.
Recipes for Mango salads – simple and with nuts
Garden Egg Salad
A perfect way to serve up garden eggs and okwu-oji, but deconstructed.
Tapioca & Coconut Salad
Creamy, coconutty, filling, this salad is perfect for Good Friday. Topped with flaked fish – smoked mackerel (homesmoked if you like).
Green Pawpaw Salad
A gorgeous salad made with unripe pawpaws. Popular in Thailand, this could definitely become a Nigerian favourite.

Lovely Yummilicious. My fav is the Herbed Mango. The thought of mango sweetness + a burst of flavor from the herbs is getting me quite excited. Well done.
