- Peanut Dipping Sauce | The Naija Goddess
< Back Peanut Dipping Sauce Prep Time: 5 min Cook Time: n/a Serves: 4 Level: Beginner About the Recipe Ingredients ⅓ cup peanut butter 2 tablespoons tamari (or soy sauce/coconut aminos) 2 tablespoons lime juice 2 tablespoons maple syrup 1 tablespoon gochujang 1 inch fresh ginger , minced 1 garlic clove , minced 1 teaspoon toasted sesame oil Preparation In a medium bowl, combine the peanut butter, tamari, lime juice, sesame oil, maple syrup, and gochujang. Use a microplane to finely mince the ginger and garlic on top. Whisk well until the ingredients are mixed. (It will be thick at this point.) Add a tablespoon of water to the bowl, and whisk again until the sauce is thinner. If you want an even thinner sauce, add another tablespoon of water, and stir again. This peanut sauce can be used right away or stored in an airtight container in the fridge for up to 5 days. It will thicken when chilled, so you may need to add another tablespoon of water when you get it out of the fridge later. Or let it come to room temperature to thin out again. Previous Next
- Rasta Pasta | The Naija Goddess
< Back Rasta Pasta Prep Time: 20 min Cook Time: Serves: 8 Level: About the Recipe Ingredients Prepping Soy Curls or Jackfruit 1 cup dried soy curls (or 12-16 oz of other similar texture protein) 1 tablespoon kelp powder (or a few sheets crushed nori) 1 tablespoon lime juice 1 tablespoon soy sauce 2 cups boiling water (more as needed) Seasoning Soy Curls or Jackfruit 1 tablespoon jerk seasoning (see post for recipe) 2 teaspoons dried parsley 2 teaspoons Old Bay seasoning (buy it) 1/2 teaspoon ground black pepper The Sauce 2 tablespoons olive oil 1 medium red pepper, sliced (about 2 cups worth) 1 medium green pepper, sliced 4 cloves garlic, minced 1 teaspoon garlic powder 1/2 teaspoon onion powder 1 teaspoon cumin 1 teaspoon smoked paprika (or regular) 1/2 teaspoon dried thyme 28 ounces canned coconut milk (Sold in 14 oz cans ) 1/2 cup shredded vegan mozzarella (see blog for brand details) 1/2 cup shredded vegan parmesan 1/2 cup shredded vegan jack (or gouda, or more mozzarella ) 1 tablespoon chopped cilantro 1 tablespoon chopped green onion tops Preparation Prep the Soy Curls or Jackfruit In a bowl, whisk together the kelp powder, lime juice, soy sauce, and boiling water. Stir in the dried soy curls or jackfruit and let sit while you prep the remaining ingredients. They only need to soak for about 5-10 minutes. Once ready to use. Stir the soy curls or jackfruit in the remaining liquid. Drain the excess liquid from the bowl but don't rinse the soy curls or jackfruit. Measure Everything This recipe comes together fast so it's important to prep all the ingredients. Measure the spices for the soy curls or jackfruit into one bowl. Measure the sauce spices in a bowl. Open the cans of coconut milk. Have everything near your stovetop so that you don't have to search out ingredients once you start cooking. Start boiling a pot of water. Roughly 8 cups. Salt the water with 2-3 Tbl of salt. Seems excessive but you're not eating all that salt and it makes a huge difference in terms of the flavor of the noodles. Cook the Soy Curls or Jackfruit Heat a large, at least 12", non-stick skillet over high heat. Add a drizzle of oil and spread it around the skillet. Add the drained soy curls or jackfruit. Cook for 5 minutes, flip, cook for an additional 5 minutes. Add the soy curl or jackfruit spice blend, flip to coat, then return the now cooked soy curls or jackfruit to the bowl you used to soak them. Set aside. Start boiling your noodles at this stage. Cook to al dente, the time will be listed on the package, so that they still have a little bite to them. Put it All Together! Pour the 2 Tbl of olive oil into your non-stick skillet (or pot), heat over medium-high, add the peppers and garlic. Stir and then let sit for 1-2 min to lightly char one side of the peppers. Add in the sauce spices, stir to coat the peppers. Pour in half of the coconut milk. Bring to a low simmer and stir in half of the cheese. Stir until the cheese is melted. Pour in the remaining coconut milk, simmer, then stir in the remaining cheese. You can save some cheese to top at the end or just mix it all into the sauce. Stir in half of the cooked soy curls or jackfruit. Stir in the cooked noodles and completely coat with the sauce. Fold in the remaining soy curls and turn heat to low and cook for 10 min. Top with the green onion and cilantro. I also like adding a few cracks of pepper. Serve, enjoy, and savor each bite. Previous Next

- Red Lentil Curry | The Naija Goddess
< Back Red Lentil Curry Prep Time: 10 min Cook Time: 35 min Serves: 4 Level: Beginner About the Recipe Ingredients 1 Tbs coconut oil 4 garlic cloves, minced 2 5411/25000 Tbs ginger, grated 1 Tbs turmeric, freshly grated (or 1 tsp of ground turmeric) 2 serrano peppers, diced (remove seeds to dampen spice level) 1 tsp cumin, ground 1/2 tsp coriander, ground 1 tsp chili powder 2 tsp curry powder 1 tsp garam masala 1 tsp salt 1/2 tsp black pepper 1 cup red lentils 2 cup vegetable broth 14 oz crushed tomatoes, canned 13 1/2 oz coconut milk, canned 3 Tbs almond butter, unsweetened 1/2 lemon, juiced 1/2 cup cilantro, chopped Preparation Prep Rinse lentils under cold water until the water runs clear. Set aside. Make Heat a large, deep skillet or large saucepan over medium-high heat and add the coconut oil. Once the oil is shimmering, add the garlic, ginger, fresh turmeric (if using), and Serrano pepper and cook for 2 minutes, stirring frequently to prevent garlic from burning. Add the cumin, coriander, chili powder, curry powder, garam masala, salt, and black pepper to taste, and cook for 30 to 60 seconds until fragrant, tossing frequently to prevent burning. If using ground turmeric instead of fresh turmeric, add the ground turmeric now, along with the rest of the spices. Pour in the vegetable broth, and use a wooden spoon or spatula to scrape up any browned bits on the bottom of the pot. Add in the lentils and the crushed tomatoes and mix well. Reduce the heat to low and cover the pan with a lid. Simmer for 20 to 25 minutes, or until the lentils are cooked through and have mostly softened. If you find that the lentils are not quite soft after 25 minutes, add a few spoons more of broth or water and cook for another 5 minutes. Remove the lid and stir in the coconut milk, almond butter, along with salt and pepper to taste Continue cooking on low heat, uncovered for 5 to 8 minutes, until the curry has thickened and is creamy. Finally, stir in the lemon juice and cilantro, and turn off the heat. If you want your lentils to be even creamier and more on the puréed side, use an immersion blender to lightly purée the curry. Serve the curry with rice and/or Indian flatbread and garnish with additional cilantro. Store leftovers in the fridge for 3-4 days. Previous Next

Add the dates and coconut oil, and continue blending for 2-3 minutes until the mixture begins to come together. Line an 8-inch (20cm) springform cake tin with baking parchment. Press the base mixture firmly and evenly into the bottom of the tin. For easier spreading, place a sheet of baking parchment over the mixture and use the back of a spoon to press it down evenly. Caramel Layer In the same food processor, add all caramel layer ingredients. Blend until smooth and caramel-like in texture, about 5-10 minutes.
