I spent an afternoon making Groundnut Soup from scratch following a traditional recipe. Getting fermented dawadawa right was the main challenge — it's not as straightforward as it looks. The smoky and warming 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 sobolo sorrel drink as the recipe suggested and the pairing made sense. It took longer than I expected but the outcome was genuinely satisfying. Making Groundnut Soup yourself gives you a new appreciation for what goes into it at a restaurant.
