In this video, I'll show you How To Make Fonio. FONIO is an ancient grain mostly cultivated in parts of West Africa. I know for a fact that Plateau State in Nigeria is one of the biggest producers of this Fonio. It's a great option for Alkaline Vegans and Regular Vegans alike. Africans have long known the benefits of eating Fonio. It's rich in B vitamins (Including Thiamine), it's gluten free, and it's a good source of protein.
Fonio (A.K.A Acha) has a gritty texture, but it tastes way different from grits and it's great at absorbing flavors. It's super quick to cook and it easily doubles in size. You need about 5 times its amount in water to make a porridge out of it, and about half its amount in water to make make a grain bowl. If you haven't tried Fonio, you should definitively order some right now and give my recipe a try.

I’m just starting my alkaline vegan journey and this channel is a Godsend. Thank you!
You're welcome! I'll keep the videos coming.
Yes, this channel 👏 is a God sent. Yum Yum 😋.
I've used Fonio before but this looks so good. Beginning my alkaline diet next week after detoxing. I'm so excited to user your recipes for new lifestyle journey. You are so awesome for someone who hasn't gone through culinary school. You are truly gifted by God. I enjoying everything I'm watching. Do you plan to publish a cookbook? I certainly hope so. 🤗
Hey Bonnie, this recipe is delicious 😋 It's one of my go-to breakfasts. Nope, no culinary school. The recipes just come to me. I also get some inspiration from those alkaline cooks who came before me. Much respect to all of them. Thanks a lot for your compliment. Yes, I'm working on an alkaline vegan cookbook. I'll definitely let you all know as soon as it's out.
@@Grubanny I am excited about the cookbook. I am enjoying cooking from the videos. They are all inspiring. Thank you for fabulous recipes 😀.
@@avlecarey52 how did you detox?
@@nishminique9503 Hi Nish. I had this detox book for the longest , finally decided to use it after having some adverse gastric reactions in my body. "Easy Weekend Detox" bought from Amazon. I found it to be a great way to know how to detox based on the questions you answer. Her book has all the detoxing for each organ in your body. I not only lost weight but felt so much better and I know this is something that needs to occur on a more frequent basis than once every 5 years or so. Lol It really keeps your body in check from diseases. Blessings!
I had some Fonio in the cabinet and didn't know anything about it. Thank you for your informative video.❤ (From Amirah an 8 year old Princess) This video was the best. I hope you receive many positive comments from your followers👍🏼👍🏼👍🏼👍🏼👍🏼 BYE for now.
Oh yes, fonio is delicious if cooked right. It's highly nutritious and absorbs liquids very quickly. A little goes a long way and will keep you full longer. It's truly a superfood 💪🏿

@@Grubanny any more breakfast ideas?
Why did I watch this on a fasting day... was totally salivating! I've never tried fonio but have just bought some organic fonio and will have a go at this dish. I thought fonio was more for savoury dishes but I guess I was wrong?
😅 yeah, don't watch recipe videos while fasting. Fonio can go both ways (sweet or savory). Give it a try. You'll be shocked at how good it is.
👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾
Amazing 👏! I am from South Africa and this will be my first time preparing it. It looks like how we prepare maze meal. Just like grits. I wonder if left soaked overnight, if it will be edible? Like soaked porridge oats instead of cooking?
Hi Nana, South Africa is one place I need to visit. It looks so beautiful. I've had corn/maize meal in the past. Yes, it looks like it, but it tastes different. I wouldn't soak it. I'd cook it. It's still very nutritious that way. If you're a raw vegan, please seek advice from a raw vegan cook. I don't want to steer you wrong.
Can you do fonio djon djon, there’s this Haitian dish called diri djon djon which is rice with djon djon mushrooms and cloves. It’s like a black rice.
Hi Jolie! Thank you for your request. I've added it to my pipeline of upcoming videos. Haitian food 😋😍
well done sir! tutorial.....Excellent.. Presentation...excellent...this looks so delish! I'm new to fonio..haven't tried it yet but because Im not familiar with it I wanted to see how to prep this grain..looks quick and easy..u def made me want to purchase..I will and Ill report back! thank u so much 4 this!
Thank you! I appreciate your feedback 😊 Fonio is very nutritious and delicious. It's easy to cook, so I believe you'd be fine. Follow my steps, and you'll end up falling in love with Fonio. Also, read up on the nutritional facts when you're able. It's amazing. Please let me know how it goes.
Mo problem amd I most certainly tag you when i prepare my dish. Do u have tik tok or instagram
@sohphocused Sounds good! Yeah, I have both. It's Grubanny.
@@Grubanny copy! I'll connect with you on both..my name is the same🤗
Damn I'm hungry
😅 Me too Chukwudi... me too 🤦🏿♂️
Another amazing video. Is this the same texture as oat porridge. I can not stand oat porridge LOL but use to love cornmeal
👏🏾👏🏾
Just wanted to say that your videos are all great and my only regrets are not seeing your channel earlier than I did. An alkaline vegan and really appreciate those videos. Keep them coming. Are you living in Nigeria? And does Ghanaians ?produce, sells or use Fonio as well?
Thank you, Fransil! There is no need to regret. I'm just getting started. I have some exciting recipes up my sleeves. Trust me, they'll blow your mind. Yes, Fonio can be found in Ghana. You can also buy Fonio on Amazon.
OMG Fonio is my favorite and now I know I've been making it subpar 😂. I definitely will try it your way 🤗 Also, I'd love to see your spin on Kamut. This is how I make mine: Kamut, spring water, ginger powder, onion powder, sea salt, African blue bird pepper. Once plated I add warm coconut milk to each bowl and top it with sauteed red onions, king mushrooms and bell peppers. 😋
That's kinda the same as my kamut grits recipe. I'll put it out there once I get to it. It's further down the list. I've a kamut hot cereal recipe on the channel, but it's old.
@@Grubanny All I know is that I want a seat at your table. Seriously, you are an alkalinian survivor. 🥰
😋😋😋😋😋😋😋😋😋
Mother Africa has all that we need!!!😊 There’s way more alkaline foods there then here in America, Dr. Sebi’s list is not complete he only gave us the foods we can possibly access here in the west…Peace and Blessings Brother
Africa truly is blessed. I've witnessed it 👀
Great video where could we buy some good fonio
WOW! Looks like something called "Cream of Wheat" that my mom would prepare...
Yup, I'm familiar with cream of wheat. Tasty!
I'm glad to see you don't have to soak it overnight to make the porridge. I wonder how much one would need to make just 1 cup of cooked fonio?
Amen bro. A S soon as I can F I N D some Fonio I know H O W to Prep my Day Thank's
You can find some on Amazon and Etsy. I got mine straight from the Motherland ✈ Nutritious and Delicious! Dropping another Fonio video in a couple days 💪🏿
@@Grubanny Amen 👍
Definitely making this to replace oats 😭
Thank you for the detailed demo and description of how and under what circumstances you need to clean your fonio before cooking and consuming it. That breakfast dish looks delicious - I will defintely be giving this one a GO ! Do you know if most of the fonio sold is milled (and therefore must be washed) what is the other way it is sold when it is not milled ? Thank you again fpr a great video !
Hi, first of all, you're welcome 😊 Second, if you live in America, Canada, or in most of Europe, you'll be able to easily find milled Fonio, and that's truly a blessing. Trust me, you don't want to have to deal with washing unmilled Fonio and trying to get rid of the dirt/sand and chaff that come with it.
If you live in Africa, you still would be able to find milled, packaged Fonio, but it's rare because most of it gets exported.
We usually stock up when we are in Senegal or The Gambia or family sends it. Do you know if it requires a vigorous cleaning or just a rinsing?
@@sy-rahnefertari4698 if it's not milled it would require vigorous cleaning. If you're stocking up from Africa and it's not packaged, it most likely requires vigorous cleaning. I stock up when I visit Africa too.
It is indeed prepackaged.
This is now my favorite breakfast. I made it last week. So delicious 😋. And the video quality is on point. Where do you buy these baby bananas? Hard to find in regular grocery stores in the US. I had to bring some from the Caribbean for this recipe.
Yeah, it's delicious 😋 You can find Baby Bananas at most local farmer's markets. They almost always have them available. Whole Foods sells them too.
What’s the shelf life for cooked Fonio that is stored in the fridge? I realize that my cooked Fonio turns rancid overnight or usually after 24 to 48 hours of storage in the fridge. Not sure if it also ferments quickly. Is this very typical of Fonio? How can I maintain it’s freshness? I’m still trying to experiment with this awesome grain.
I've stored it in the fridge for 3 days. It was plain i.e. without milk, nuts, or fruits. I keep my fridge really cold, so that may have helped keep it fresh. Also, note that I used white fonio. Black fonio may have a different shelf life. Store it in the freezer. Just add some water and reheat when needed. Should last up to a month.
Spanish markets / Korean markets sometimes has them as well! They also have key limes (:
Do a Farro video
That look so yummy 🤤 when I make fonio it dose not look that good. 😂
😅 I know the feeling Loni. You should be able to nail it now though. Thanks for your support 🙏🏿
Can you please try to include the total calorie intake for your meals in the description?
OH EM GEE!
That is all...
😆 thank you
try a ghanaian food like waakye and waakye stew
It's on my list! Need to deliver a killer Egusi soup first lol
@@Grubanny I can't wait to try that one... while you're at it... please attempt moi moi... it's the only nigerian food i really like
@@Ebizzill yup, that's on my list too. I'll let you know when the video's up. May be a little while though.
Song please its beautiful?
Yeah, it's beautiful. It's titled Suelto by Timothy Infinite
Hi. Im a raw vegan ( i dont eat cooked food). Is there a way to soften the fonio without cooking it ?
I see the fonio on the link is unavailable. I want to order some organic clean fonio. Do you have any other recommendations
can you start adding the links where you order from and /or the brands you use ?
You're right. I'll work on adding links.
@@Grubanny thank you !
Can you use frozen fruit if you thaw it.
Yes you can
@@Grubanny Wonderful will try tomorrow morning.
My Fonio package says precooked. What does that mean?
Where can I buy organic Baby bananas in the US? :,(
Whole Foods has them. There's a banana rack close to the cheese station. That's where they are
@@Grubanny I ended up going to my local Whole Foods today, and I was able to find them, I hadn’t check Whole Foods prior. Thank you so much!!!
@@johnlennon4274 you're welcome. I'm happy to hear you found them. That's great news!
Uh......where the heck did you "depart" from, bro???
Tease you. Fonio is Gambian like or more than Senegal. Also you do not have to peel the mangoes, the mango skin tastes good and with nutrients... My bonus/gift: My stupidities yesterday: In this world of what, who, and where; between yesterday , today, and tomorrow-- my stupidities yesterday were just what it was, I thank God I was not of the liars and cruel ones, or at least not the big ones. Delays and seeming denials are sometimes blessings, because you are not above learning and patience , even prophets are taught and tested on patience. So when you are in love with a what, who, or where, feel free to seek, but avoid lying and cruelty with greater strength than you avoid stupidity. Use your conscience, The world is bigger than their religions, cultures, and governments-- they are part of it, but just means between choices , reward, and punishments that are far beyond humans. Look at the what (things) God/humans seemingly denied you, didn't He give you much more ? He certainly did with me, so just learn from me and keep on striving, but please avoid lying and cruelty to be successful or most successful. Memories can be heaven when free of ignorance, lying, and cruelty, especially the latter two.
How about today? We all think we are acting as intelligently as possible, but may be, may be not. Again, do your best, but avoid lying and cruelty with utmost efforts.
Remember the who (people) you sought or sought you, the delays and seeming denials were but blessings, or protection? All or most of them, you would not want to be with them today. Hope you did good with the ones you were with. Some you were protected from, you were weak and could have been manipulated. So even if you were partially guilty of stupidity, where you avoided lying and cruelty are easier to remember. So whether you have an ideal partner or not, you may still be more blessed than those who denied you. Look beyond the visible, and strive wisely for the visible you may lack through the route that is free of lying and cruelty, to the best of your ability. Strive with patience, and remember what, who, and where God has given you, not just seemingly deny you. Avoid forcing and begging in relationships, they can bring bad memories or even worse.
Look at the where (places) you were delayed or denied, didn't God give you much more? Some enter places in low, mild to extreme stupidity; through varying levels of lying, or even cruelty; but is there a place worth lying to enter today? Not for me today. So life is way beyond intelligence and the visible. Learn that and teach it to your children. After entering, how did you live? Hope you avoided or avoiding lying and cruelty? Have and Tell your children to have faith, do good deeds, but apply super good deeds as per ch.103. God can immensely reward the visibly poor and can even enrich them visibly, but who will strive wisely and beyond intelligence? We were not alone, nor are we alone. So we will likely not be alone and wouldn't you want to be free from lying and cruelty to be joint with similar folks? The world is just about hundred years for you, if you are 'lucky'. So how hard should it be to avoid lying and cruelty for just hundred years...? Strive! while you can. God can give you so much happiness, it feels like you are Billionaire or trillionaire living countless years even on earth. So how can you doubt God can make and remake and reward us like or better than the best of Religions described? May we be forever triumphant.
Iam so mad. That I just made some. But I didn’t wash it. It look like sugar. The one that I have. From my organic herbs store by my house
Sorry to hear that 😢
