Day 85: Benin

23 Jul

Poulet Beninois al fresco

Finding African dishes that are easy to cook while in Norway was challenging. Fortunately, chicken was a favourite protein for most African countries. Benin was their country of choice for this evening. It was a sunny day, a rarity in these parts, so Epicurious Kids were keen on a quick and easy dish in order to enjoy the Norwegian sun.

Prepping for Benin

Testing the taste

The recipe called for simple ingredients, aside from the chicken, tomato paste, onions, cayenne pepper, bouillon cubes and carrots. Tristan decided to add some dried herbs, parsley and thyme to add more flavour.

Boys don’t cry here…

Simmering to perfection

The Poulet Beninois was simple enough, after all the ingredients were in the pot, just leave to simmer for 20 minutes, and serve. Inigo insisted on having some broccoli on the side for some needed veggies.

Brothers in arms

Benin there, done that!

After the quick kitchen challenge, Epicurious Kids were ready to taste their Poulet Beninois al fresco. And continue their Norwegian summer adventure!

Fresh are sweetens any dish!
