Traditional Nigerian Healthy Recipes: Northern

The people of the North, the Hausa, are responsible for many of the greater innovations in Nigerian cuisine. A particular dish that immediately comes to mind is Suya!

You can find a Suya seller in any corner of Nigeria swarmed by hungry customers salivating at the thought of consuming this tasty, spicy kebab.

However, there’s much more to Northern cuisine than just Suya, indeed the Hausa are traditionally known to grind grains, beans and tomatoes into delicious cakes, porridges and stews; getting the most out of every flavourful morsel of their ingredients and creating smooth and nutritious delights beloved nation-wide.
