Nigerian Cookery Class

About this course

Participants work together in a family-style kitchen to prepare a selection of Nigerian dishes, including jollof rice, plantain, red pepper stews, efo riro, pounded yam, coleslaw and puff-puff. Each person chooses one dish to focus on, while also moving around the kitchen to assist with other recipes and learn from the wider preparation. The class ends with a shared meal eaten with the chef, facilitator and volunteers.

What you'll learn

• Prepare one traditional Nigerian dish from the class menu
