Manna from the Motherland

By Teetee Weisel

Adapting the vegetarian variations on cuisine from Liberia, Ghana and Kenya, this book focuses on the close relationship between a healthy diet and a healthy spirit. Interwoven with the savoury recipes are sections on mediation, hatha yoga, walking for physical fitness and spiritual poems. The author also includes stories from her life inspired by certain foods or food experiences, which reveal the cultural attitudes about food, as well as the influences of various ethnic groups, including Indians, Syrians and Lebanese, on African cuisine.
