Welcome to Episode 2 of Season 3 of Conversations With Amaka, a storytelling series that explores identity, legacy, and creativity through the lens of extraordinary Africans.
This episode is PART ONE of The Kitchen Butterfly Series, featuring Ozoz Sokoh, culinary explorer, food historian, educator, and the vibrant mind behind Kitchen Butterfly. She recently released her long-awaited cookbook, Chop Chop: Cooking the Food of Nigeria, and in this episode, she invites us into her journey — one that’s deeply rooted in food, memory, and culture.
In this part of our four-week series, Ozoz explains why Jollof Rice is more than a West African staple—it’s a cultural compass, a conversation starter, and a gateway to a deeper understanding of Nigerian cuisine.

New episodes air every Saturday at 9:30 PM EST / 2:30 AM WAT.
