About Agege bread and beans
Agege Bread and Beans is a hearty Nigerian meal combining the soft, fluffy Agege bread with steamed or boiled beans, often seasoned with palm oil, onions, spices, and sometimes pepper. Agege bread, a staple of Nigerian cuisine, originates from Lagos and is known for its pillowy texture, made from flour, sugar, yeast, and sometimes milk or margarine. Beans, typically black-eyed peas or brown beans, offer a rich source of protein, fiber, and essential nutrients like iron and potassium, promoting healthy digestion and sustained energy. However, the dish can become calorie-dense due to the bread and the palm oil used in preparation, raising concerns for those monitoring their fat or carbohydrate intake. As a beloved street food and comfort meal, Agege Bread and Beans balances nutritional value with indulgent flavor, making it a cherished part of Nigerian culinary tradition.
