In the coming weeks, find inspiring Christmas recipes on my blog with the 'Ndudu twist'.
Ingredients are carefully selected to ensure they're readily available to everyone and alternatives are offered.
Let's start with this easy but equally impressive nibble.
Thinking about ways to incorporate similar but unusual flavours to traditional recipes enabled me to create this recipe.
This recipe is inspired by 'Kelewele' (a spicy fried, cubed ripened Plantain) which is a popular street food in Ghana.

Kelewele is served with peanuts , hence the idea of making a Suya crumble(made from peanuts and African spices) to accompany the Plantain would be a match made in heaven.
