Agbalumo-Banana Ice cream

Image
Agbalumo-Banana Ice cream Quick and nice  Ice cream. No special equipment required in this 3 ingredient ice cream of  Agbalumo , which is composed  Frozen Bananas and condensed milk. One-ingredient ice creams are a firm favourite with me – essentially, a fruit puree that stars bananas. Frozen. Hence the texture and cream and sweet. Now, I’m not a fan of bananas in  smoothies  or desserts as such, but this works out beautifully for me. The ‘one-ingredient ice cream’ has the richness of dairy desserts and the sweetness too, yet without the making of custard, the long sets and all the other intricacies called for by  true ice creams . And all that’s required for the base is frozen, ripe bananas. My version is a three-ingredient ice cream, with frozen bananas,  Agbalumo puree  and a touch of condensed milk. I would have used my food processor except I couldn’t find the lid  and so I ended up with my b...

HOW TO MAKE AN AWESOME ZOBO/LEAVE DRINK 100% NATURAL!!!!!!!!

Image
 You have absolutely nothing to lose but so much to gain for taking a chilled glass of zobo Nigerian drinks. The health benefits are immeasurable, although this depends on the ingredient you used while preparing it. I would personally recommend just natural ingredients if you can find them; I use them when I can find them. Here we are going to do it just the way Mama Iyabo does it. You may want to read the comment below before you actually try this zobo recipe, few persons experienced soured taste when they used lots of pineapple, they agreed that pineapple flavor is better than actual pineapples when it comes to making zobo drink. And I agree. The plate above contains ginger, about 3 fingers of ginger would do. The ginger inset would be enough for 5 cups of zobo leaves then the joccy pinapple flavor by the side of the plate (use just one sachet and add it when the zobo is boiled and filtered). This would be enough to make 2-3 litres of zobo juice drink. By the end of th...
