Home cooking attempt — Banku from scratch
I spent an afternoon making Banku from scratch following a traditional recipe. Getting groundnuts right was the main challenge — it's not as straightforward as it looks. The nutty and palm-rich result was rewarding once I got it right.
the debate over Ghanaian versus Nigerian jollof rice is a celebrated West African rivalry. I served it with Club Beer as the recipe suggested and the pairing made sense. It took longer than I expected but the outcome was genuinely satisfying. Making Banku yourself gives you a new appreciation for what goes into it at a restaurant.
