About the book
Egusi on a Tuesday. Jollof for the party. Suya from your oven.
Every recipe is a real Nigerian classic, cooked the way you remember it, with the practical details for living in Europe: which supermarket ingredients work, which don't, and how to use an oven, an air fryer and a freezer to fit Nigerian cooking around a working week.

- Germany & EU and UK ingredient swap boxes on every recipe
- A pantry guide: what each ingredient is and where to find it
- The basics: all-purpose pepper base and seasoned stock
- Sunday batch-cook plan, freezer guide, weekly meal plan and shopping list
