Afro Vegan - by Zoe Alakija (Hardcover)

About the Book

Inspired by her British-Nigerian heritage, Alakija shares eclectic fusion recipes that give a playful, contemporary twist to the joy-infused food of her childhood. It is a vegan cookbook that draws its breath from the colors, contrasts, cultures and flavors of West Africa.

Book Synopsis

- Vibrant plant-based dishes fusing African and European flavors from a young British-Nigerian cook

- Includes almost 50 recipes

Introducing Zoe Alakija, a London-based cook, whose rich recipes blend modern British flavors with the rich colors and tastes of her Nigerian upbringing. African food in general, and Nigeran food in particular, is on the rise in the UK and dishes like cheesy kokoro and nutty plantain brownies take European vegan food far beyond the more muted flavors and colors that we are used to. Zoe's immaculate balance of tastes combined with playful presentation ensures these are recipes to remember for those willing to explore broader, more environmentally responsible horizons.
