African Pepper Soup Recipe by Homegrown
About the Creation
Rose Dakou, who runs Homegrown Tottenham, created an African Pepper soup recipe for guests at the Haringey Feast to enjoy.
Rose Dakou said on making the African Pepper soup recipe with her daughter, Chloe:
‘I learned when I was younger back home, cooking rice, easy thing a girl should know. Makes me relaxed and focused, can only think about the soup I'm making.’

Rose served free African Pepper soup at Trove Market to members of the community, gaining feedback on her recipe until it was perfect for the Haringey Feast at Alexandra Palace!
Rose Dakou runs Homegrown Tottenham, a charity passionate about education, racial justice, food justice and collective care. During the pandemic she ran weekly soup kitchens every Wednesday and delivered to residents suffering from COVID and members of the older community.
