Did I tell you Christmas has always been my favorite time of the year way back from when I was a child. There definitely something in the air around Christmas time. O yes the birth of Jesus ?

Well in Nigeria Christmas menu is is usually all about special recipes. Dishes like fried rice always make a show. Yes fried rice used to be a special delicacy. It is still is the only difference is that it’s eaten more Often during the year than it used to.

Another Nigerian Christmas time favorite was Nigerian Chin chin. But now can literally whip up a batch and munch away any time you want to.
