Culture Shock

So you have arrived (or have been here a while). Where is here? Some country other than Ghana your motherland.
The food...well the food is not much to write home about is it? Bland, no spice, no pepper and sometimes....no sauce to go with the rice that they've cooked! :(

IF:
1) You miss the food of home
2) You never paid attention to what your mom/sister/househelp was doing in the kitchen and now regret it
3) You're too busy to spend the many hours it usually takes to make ghanaian food
4) You don't know where to find the right ingredients (or an equivalent).
5) You are away from home for the first time/have never cooked before...

then I'm here to help!
I aim to provide easy steps for cooking basic Ghanaian dishes. Stew, Jolof, Lightsoup etc using ingredients you can find at your local supermarket.
I'll also provide a database of hidden gems in major European and American cities. Ghanaian (or afro-caribbean) restaurants, bakeries and markets.
