Hoovering with Jessica Fostekew

Hoovering - Episode 45: Zoe Adjonyoh

Season 1, Ep. 45

Welcome to HOOVERING, the podcast about eating. Host, Jessica Fostekew (Guilty Feminist, Motherland) has a frank conversation with an interesting person about gobbling; guzzling; nibbling; scoffing; devouring and wolfing all up… or if you will, hoovering.


This week my guest is the brilliant Zoe Adjonyoh of Zoe’s Ghana Kitchen fame. You’ve probs seen her cooking up a storm on Sunday Kitchen or similar. She makes us one if the most glorious meals I’ve ever had made up of Ghanian staples twisted and reimagined - just total and utter heaven. We are meeting specifically because we are both ambassadors for an amazing charity appeal this winter by AFRIKIDS which is called TIME TO SHINE - we implore you to give generously. Every donation they get until 4th March 2019 - the government have agreed to match because the work they’re doing is so important and so urgent. They’re a brilliant, clever charity with the long term picture in mind. Please click the bits in capitals to link to their site. 


Recipes


It’s not my place to publish Zoe’s recipes without her consent but you should totally BUY HER BOOK! It’s called ZOE’S GHANA KITCHEN and I’ve already got three copies in as Christmas presents. Also if you become a patron of the podcast I’ll be asking her for a recipe for my January edition of ‘Guest Recipes’ - of course.
