Season 8: Episode 06: Lerato

This week, Lerato Umah-Shaylor joins me to talk all about the beauty of African cooking. Her new cookbook, Africana, takes us on a journey from north to south, east to west; celebrating all that the continent has to offer.

We discuss the politics of jollof rice, and I blow her away with my own jollof rice, which she loved! She opens up about her incredibly interesting childhood both here in the UK and in West Africa, and she explains to me why African food in general is finally having a moment.
