AFRICAN STREET FOODS et al: Nigeria

African foods have so much splendor, color and spice. Their mouth watering aromas and displays are exceptional.

My favorites are the street foods. They are small chops usually made and sold in little outdoor stands of local pubs though they can be personally made as small chops for house parties or traditional occasions.
Here are some from Nigeria..
