Watch: Mbongo tchobi with Carine Ottou
Join chef Carine Ottou as she cooks a classic Cameroonian dish as part of Kew's Orchids festival
As part of this years’ Orchids festival inspired by the beauty of Cameroon, join chef Carine Ottou as she prepares mbongo tchobi, a classic dish from her home country.
Inspired by the beauty and biodiversity of Cameroon, Orchids 2023 is a vibrant celebration of colour and warmth to brighten up the winter months.
From lush rainforests and volcanic mountains to arid desert plains, Cameroon’s huge variety of plants and wildlife are supported by varied habitats, reflected across the ten unique climatic zones within the Princess of Wales Conservatory.
Carine’s Cameroonian menu is available at Orchids Festival at Kew Gardens until March 5 2023.
