Can watermelon replace tomatoes in a stew? BBC Africa
Ghana is grappling with a persistent cost of living crisis, despite a slight slowdown in inflation to around 22% in June, thanks to a $3 billion IMF-supported programme. Food prices continue to surge, meaning certain ingredients like tomatoes are becoming expensive to buy. We hear from one of Ghana's food content creators, Dr. Akosuah about tomato substitutes and what she uses instead for her stew? And does it taste good? The BBC’s Thomas Naadi has the final say.
