My first blog post since October last year! 😳On the simple beauty of the Ugandan queen cake - follow link in bio: 'The royal beauty of the Ugandan Queen Cake lies in its simplicity. Essentially mini sponge cakes, the queen cakes you can buy from street stalls around the capital city Kampala are the antithesis of the modern cupcake overloaded with sugary toppings and sweet treats. The Ugandan queen cake only includes the basic ingredients; flour, eggs, cooking oil, sugar, baking powder, and vanilla essence. And it is delicious...' #africanfood #streetfood #queencakes #uganda #kampala #teatime #streetfood The latest exciting addition to my African cookbook library - Hibiscus by Lope Ariyo. Packed with elegantly inventive recipes, inspiring photos and interesting facts and anecdotes. First on my list to cook are the Sumac and Hibiscus prawns, followed by Seared Scallops in Grapefruit Sauce, and definitely Baked Kuli Kuli Cod with Cayenne Yam Chips. Also super excited to see a Nigerian take on Swedish meatballs and Hasselbacks-plantains!! Yummy days ahead! Congratulations @lopeariyo on a stunning piece of work! #africanfood #nigeria #newnigeriancuisine #cookbooks #africanchefs #yum The original!
