The United Nations African Mothers Association (UNAMA) holds an annual fundraising event that takes the form of a buffet luncheon featuring home cooked food representing numerous African nations. Their mission includes improving the socio-economic conditions of women and children in Africa as well as promoting its diverse, rich culture. Held this year at the Consulate of Nigeria, we enjoyed dishes from Burkina Faso ๐Ÿ‡ง๐Ÿ‡ซ, the Republic of Cameroon ๐Ÿ‡จ๐Ÿ‡ฒ, Cรดte d’Ivoire ๐Ÿ‡จ๐Ÿ‡ฎ, Kenya ๐Ÿ‡ฐ๐Ÿ‡ช, Tanzania ๐Ÿ‡น๐Ÿ‡ฟ, Nigeria ๐Ÿ‡ณ๐Ÿ‡ฌ and many more.

This sunbathed plate held a few examples of chicken, salmon, shrimp, couscous, rice, and potato preparations; the second photo provides a closer inspection of an artfully garnished couscous from Libya; the third shows Seswaa (shredded beef) from Botswana, Lamb Basquaise (stew) from Cameroon, and more of that sensually scented couscous.
