Love fonio. I cook it twice a month for my son. I use coconut water and hemp milk along with my desired veggies and spices. We love it.
Goddess Maat: Yes, you would cook it the same way as rice but with less water 50% water than rice since the grain is very small. Either milk will work. You can always add what you like and remove what you don’t like from this video. Thanks for watching.

@@AshantiQueen thanks so much, i appreciate !
This was a great recipe and your Fanti is sweet! And yes, we do have fonio in northern Ghana!
Gyam S.: Really? I didn’t know that. I have to look for it when I go to the North.
Love the commentary
Fredy Rosales: Thank you.
Blessings Ashanti Queen ! On the hunt for FONIO !!! Thanks !!
Shatter: You’ll love it. You can find it on Amazon and ThriveMarket.Com. Thanks for watching.
My fonio dinner was an experience. I rewatched your video and took notes. Using the notes as an outline I laid out all of the ingredients on the counter and then went through the process, constantly stirring. I did add pulled grilled chicken thighs as a meat. One note, at the end the dish does thicken up very fast so your advice of adding a splash of water was very sound. Wish I could add a picture and there was an AROMA app.
Ned Overton: Awww... Thanks for sharing your experience. I wish I can see a picture. Your next try will be even better.
Awesome video! I loved your talking, it was entertaining...Extra!
Tiffany D. Caesar: Thanks sis and thanks again for watching.
nice
I am a first time viewer and I was looking for a recipe for Fonio. Your looks absolutely delicious. I love, love, veggies and am always on the look out for ways to serve them. I can hardly wait to prepare this dish. Just one question, do I cook Fonio the same amount of time I would cook rice, 20 minutes? Thank you
Delicious
Eiii nana: Saa?
food made with love
Deep Rooted Kennels: For sure.
Hi, thank you very much for the efforts ✌🏽🙂 how can I support you're hustle? ✌🏽🙏🏾🙂
Thank you!
Jessica Loftin : You’re welcome. Thanks for watching.
I am starting to buy this so I can help support the workers in Africa I never knew about it until I saw it in one of our stores in Canada here and I have friends in Uganda on Facebook and I know how poor they can be in that country we don't realize how terrible it is until you learn about them and their culture
BB BB: May God bless you.
Thank you for this video. I sell fonio also known as Acha in Nigeria. I'll refer my customers to this channel. Medaci papapa
Abigail Davou : I would love to buy some from you. Thanks for watching.
How can i purchase fonio from you as opposed to Thrive or Amazon?
I can put it in my rice cooker
I made this and my son absolutely loves this. I substituted some items but absolutely amazing 😀
This looks delicious 😋Do you have more vegan cooking videos?
Ceianna: Yes. I work on the videos.
@@AshantiQueen Oouu thanks I look forward to checking those out.
Haha it’s the right words
Fonioooo. Did you say you got this one from Amazon?
Raile The Fanti Bae: You can easily find it on Amazon.
Do you use olive oil to stir fry your veggies? Or vegetable/canola oils? It looks real good.
A. R: I used coconut oil. Olive oil loose it's properties with at high heat. It has a low smoke point. Thanks for watching.
@@AshantiQueen oh ok I've never tried using coconut oil, I did try it with soy oil and added tofu cubes. Came out surprisingly well and a the flavor was very good.
A. R. She used Avocado oil on this recipe.
@@ysmbklyn actually she said she used coconut oil he her reply to my question..

Hello dear, we sell some directly from Ghana and ship for free worldwide. TH-cam doesn't allow me to share link but If you don't mind, our Etsy shop is called TeikoRootsofAfricaS
We offer discounts and free shipping. Thank you very much 🧡
My malian grandma would say ! NI YE MOUN YÉ
Oumar Diallo: Translation please.
Where can i get some to buy?
Nana Yaa: You can get on Amazon or ThriveMarket.com
is fonio keto friendly?
It is keto friendly
Too much talk taking away from ur commentary.
Honestly
I agree about to leave
Can you have this recipe in written form? It looks very good but the video is a little difficult to follow.
Carriellen Angell: I should have. I'm sorry. I will work on it.
How much fonio did you use?
Roughly a cup and a half to 2 cups. I used the entire packet/10oz. I should have specified. I apologize.
No need to apologize...thanks I will be making this when I go out & get the remaining ingredients, I only have the fonio
You don’t cover the pot
Talking too much, so its noisy.
WEBUYBLACK.COM you can find it.
I've had fonio for some sometime but haven't tried it. Recipe looks good but talking, singing and banging spoon is to much. My ears still ringing. 😆
Not only can you brush your teeth my dear you chew on parsley it will get rid of the taste and the smell of garlic guaranteed
My sister I know that this my sound like I am out of this world but garlic is poison
Christopher Hutchinson: If you believe garlic is poison then it is. I think it's good for me. Thanks for watching.
Thanks. I knew fonio cooking, but yours is slightly different and will try it, lbw. How could you not name Gambia as among the countries growing it? .My bonus/gift: We need emergency mass prayers, emergency crowd funding, and/or emergency mass urging of Billionaires to reward essential truth revealing folks. As you may or may not know, the u.s just declared 'state of emergency' over the possible leaking of truthful information regarding oil pipelines that may have global effects, including climate change effects and information. Some money and/or truth loving folks are asking money (ransom) to avoid revealing the truth , but what amount of money can we give them to reveal it and know how Trump, Obama, Biden, or xyz may be worse than many imagine? Ideally, we wish they understand the truthful Lord can reward them more, but the truthful Lord did not forbid us to reward such more than others who give us less than truth. It is far from being anti u.s or any country , but more about being pro truth and understanding truth is our best friend. A Russian, Chinese, or Iranian Billionaire should give Snowden one million dollars and offer similar to the pipeline hackers and future essential truth revealers; that a committee will decide if they get hundred thousand to million dollars as grateful compensation depending on the amount of lies and cruelty it exposes or will prevent. Similarly, a u.s or Saudi Billionaire can offer million dollars to essential leaks regarding Iran, Russia, China, etc? Imagine a huge leak that will shed light on Chinese treatment of uyghurs, saudi treatment of countless 'Jamal' the journalists or activists, Russian maltreating of citizens, etc for one million dollars versus wars and questionable sanctions? These leaks can prevent wars, raise human right records, and countless benefits; but some cowards think truth can be more dangerous than lies and cruelty of their favorite countries? Once we can convince one billionaire to join us, other Billionaires in other countries may return the favor.
Beside Billionaires, couple of reputable activists can spearhead continuous crowd funding for such leaks to be encouraged with reasonable reward. Just ten to fifty million truth loving people ready to contribute ten dollars a year can raise how much money and move this world closer to truth, which automatically leads to closer to Kindness or God. The ideas through the mind of a blessed marijuana guy is like a seed that God should complete for mass uplifting and bless the mediums of great ideas.

Fonio is almost identical to Grits...in taste and texture....in the USA we eat grits with salt and butter and or cheese for breakfast mostly...Fonio can be prepared the same...I really like it.....But can you buy Fonio in the Ghana street markets?
Rudy Grissom :Looked for it in Ghana but couldn’t find it. Perhaps they don’t call it Fonio. I didn’t have time to search for it. I love shrimp and grits.
Just saw several Ghanaian names for Fonio..(Fonyo)...which is cultivated mostly in the northern region by the Chokosis and Konkomba people, who call it ... Nvoni or Ekpui....also has been called, Acha and Hungry rice......Hungry millet...Afio, Pini, Fundi millet and hungry koos.
@@AshantiQueen fonio is packaged and sold by Dim Foods, I believe, in Ghana. I got my one from them at 5 Ghana cedis for 500g
@@rudygrissom5871 : Wow! Thank you for the knowledge on Fonia. I will look for in Nima on market day or when I go to Tamale. I wish it's common in Accra. Thanks for watching.
@@Tetekai where did you get the Dim foods fonio?
