  • Tomorrow is Mother's Day and what better way to celebrate my mum?! I made this video last week and was going to save it for later. Watching it today, I realised I kept singing my mum's praise and so it is perfect for the occasion. My siblings and I were blessed with great parents and with the recent passing of my dad, we feel even more blessed for the gift of Mama. One day, I will tell you more about her. She made sure hardwork and discipline was inculcated in us. We've never lived or visited anywhere that our absence is not felt. She's a heck of a cook and my passion for cooking comes from her. Every day is Mother's day when you have a mum like her. This is how she taught us to make abenkwan that is sure to please everyone we serve it to. I hope you enjoy!
    Ingredients
    2 lb palm pulp (kernels removed)

    Friends, on this Mother's Day eve, enjoy Abenkwan the way my amazing mum taught me. All that I am, I owe it to her and my late dad. Now that she's all we have, she gets twice the love. Happy Mother's Day to all you mummies out here❤❤. May our hard work pay off🙏🏾😇.
