This is not just another ordinary cookbook. It is an intimate diary of a Nigerian boy who left his safe world behind to collide with the unforgiving Polish frost, a sense of alienation, and a paralyzing longing for his homeland. In this new reality, where everything seemed cold and incomprehensible, his passion for cooking proved to be his only salvation- moments when the scent of heating palm oil and familiar flavors literally healed his soul.
What lies within the pages of this unique memoir?
Raw emotions and heartfelt moments: A moving story about feeling lost, finding one’s place, and discovering love. It is a tale of how shared meals became the most beautiful, universal language between two vastly different cultures.
A surprising Afro-Polish fusion: See how love brings two distant worlds together on a single plate, giving birth to incredible dishes like Fasolka po bretońsku but also in a Nigerian style or traditional Nigerian egusi and jollof rice.
Cult recipes straight from the heart: Discover the secrets of authentic Nigerian cooking, from the unique double-cooking method for perfectly fluffy rice and the famous coconut rice where intense flavor is locked inside every single grain , to the savory and crispy Akara bean donuts.
Immerse yourself in this honest story, in which every aroma brings back memories and a pot full of fire and spices slowly transforms cold Warsaw into a safe haven. Because home is not always a place, sometimes it is the scent of heated palm oil and the hand of a loved one with whom you share your first, perfect jollof rice.
