African Chef John
Chef John went African with his latest recipes, so I did for this week's Mamu-Nephew hangout: Jollof Rice and Suya. The suya, grilled beef in a peanut butterry marinade, was great, but the spicy and flavorful and colorful Jollof rice was the star here.
(Not sure what happened in my pic, but in the real life simulation of my head the rice was definitely more of a tomato pasty color than a tumericky color.)
I grilled the Suya on my Yak Grill, a table-top skewer grill which I supported on Kickstarter in my excitement at getting my house at the start of the pandemic following a brief period of self hate when I had been forced to move in with me mum cuz my city hopping Air BnB lifestyle was not compatible with a deadly contagion, but I did not use it until now two years later and I suddenly realized what I had been missing out on. This thing makes grilling tiny amounts super easy.
I don't have a table to use it for table top grilling so I just put it on the grill of my Weber, but once I have a patio set up I'm definitely going to be using it with much frequency.
