Guinean Recipes

  • ketoun/sweet potato potage

    Ketoun | Yam Porridge

    Hey food lovers, welcome back for another delicious ethnic recipe. Today we’re going to Guinea. I’m sharing a Ketoun recipe. Ketoun is typical Guinean something that we eat year round but mostly during Ramadan. It is a porridge/pottage with a mixture of vegetables, mostly sweet with some fish and palm oil. If you love sweet and salty, you’ll love Ketoun. Normally the texture of Ketoun resembles a sweet potato pottage but I like mine chunkier.

  • Bissap/Hibiscus/Sorrel Drink

    BISSAP – Hibiscus/Sorrel Drink

    In today’s episode, I’m sharing with you how I make Bissap. Bissap is a very yummy and refreshing drink that brings back childhood memories for me. Aside from being delicious, Bissap is rich in vitamin C and proteins. In fact, the benefits come from the dried sorrel flowers/hibiscus. There are many ways to make Bissap, but this recipe is my go to and favorite way to make it. Likewise, you can checkout the video I made on my Youtube channel Afromomspices showing you all the steps on how to make Bissap. Hope you enjoy 😀
