If you want to serve your fufu meals rolled up like a mat as shown above, the following video shows how to do that.
What you will need:
- The prepared fufu meal:
- Semolina Fufu or
- Cassava Fufu or
- Eba (Garri) or
- Plantain Fufu or
- Pounded Yam … and many more
- Non-stick baking sheet (parchment paper)
- Rolling Pin
- Flat table top
- Anti-slip table mat (optional)
The demonstration is better seen that read about so watch the video. If you cannot watch a Youtube video, there’s a video on All Nigerian Recipes Instagram page: @allnigerianrecipes and on Facebook.
Thanks for sharing. I have always wondered how it was done. Keep up their good work.
You’re welcome Debbie. Thanks.
What if one does not have access to the nonstick baking sheet? Is there an alternative to that?
You can use aluminium foil Tee_kay but it won’t be as easy to roll because the fufu will stick.
It looks really nice. Haven’t heard of rolled fufu or semo or garri before, can’t wait to try it and wow everyone. You are simply amazing, looking forward to your next post.
Let the wow-ing begin Jessica. 🙂
Your posts and recipe book have re-awakened a passion that had become passive. May the Lord bless you richly.

Hello. I have been coming to your website since April 2015. I want to say thank you for teaching me to prepare Nigerian meals my soon to be husband will enjoy. Im an African American woman marrying an Igbo man and having some meals I can prepare him from “home” I know will make the transition so much easier!
You are welcome Miesha. I’m glad to read that. Keep up the great work you are doing. 🙂
dis is lovely ma .but if I want to roll my semo like DAT,it means I have to prepare d semo very strong ?
Not at all Funmi. Make it the normal consistency. Once you use a parchment paper when rolling, it will not stick.
Flo you are just too much. I am going to over WOW!!! People with this. Starting with my husband, so see if it will get him to eat swallow a bit. Thanks alot
hehe Let the wowing begin! ♥ ♥
I wonder how those who do not eat swallow survive ooo. You know each time I eat swallow with a different soup, I feel like I am eating a completely different meal. So not eating swallows is like not eating a dozen meals. 🙂
Good luck in your efforts to “convert” him. Ife love n’eme! 😉
Bumped into this blogsite while researching Akara business (LOL) couple of days ago and got hooked. Am I so glad to find you, Flo! Already ordered the All Nigerian Recipe book. Cant wait to turn the pages. God bless you for us, Sis!
Chai Business Tycoon! God bless you too GreenFingers. I’m glad you love what you see here. Thank you.
Good luck with the Akara business. 🙂
Hi!
How’s the food in the picture named?
Not the bread but the food. How is it called?
Thank you!
Chris the soup is Bitterleaf Soup and the dough is one of the group of foods known as fufu or “swallows” in Nigeria.
Together it is called a swallow meal because you eat them together.
i tried this!! and it worked!
WOW AWESOME!!!! E DEY WORK OOO!!
