Maafe
The dish is a reinterpretation of the ';Maafe';, a beautiful African stew with butternut squash, sweet peppers, juicy tomatoes, and peanut butter , cooked by our Chef Jordan at the Made In Hackney Community Meal Service. "In France we have a lot of African influences in the food culture. The first time I ate it was at a dinner party of my parents friend';s who are Half creole and Senegalese," says Jordan. Enjoy it!
