Ghanaian Cuisine Workshop in Cape Coast Ghana, West Africa

Cooking with Esi in Cape Coast, Ghana, at her restaurant "Be Nice & Rich." Esi will teach you how to make fried plantains, red red, palava sauce, boiled yam, groundnut soup / stew and of course, fufu. Noticing there were a lot of people around, she decided to make an impromptu Fante style chicken soup too.

About the ingredients, from left to right in the first still: yam, three ripe plantains, cassava, one unripe plantain, yellow African eggplant, purple onions, curry powder, Adobo seasoning, African spinach, palm oil, and a can of tomato paste. Somewhere around there are a bunch of Maggie cubes, which are essentially shrimp flavored bullion cubes. There was also fresh garlic, ginger, a couple of tomatoes, peanut butter, and cooked black eyed peas. I will get more specific on how we combined all those things in a future post. :-)

This workshop is part of this tour (Day 5):

Music is Sean Paul & Sasha - I'm Still In Love. Esi played a selection of Sean Paul and other dancehall reggae throughout the workshop. She also threw a bit of 50 Cent in there.
