Cooking traditional African food in the UK shouldn’t feel like a struggle. Whether you’re a seasoned chef or just learning how to make your mum’s egusi soup, having access to real, authentic ingredients makes all the difference.
At Lanlola Mart, we’re making sure African kitchens across the UK stay stocked with the essentials—fresh, affordable, and delivered to your door. If you’re looking to bring bold, nourishing flavours back into your meals, here are 7 must-have African staples (and how to get them easily).
🥣 Egusi (Ground Melon Seeds)
No Nigerian soup pantry is complete without egusi. Its thick, creamy texture and nutty flavour make it the perfect base for hearty soups. Our 1kg ground egusi is freshly packed and ready for your pot.
✔ Why buy from us?
We guarantee freshness, no sand or husk, and finely ground texture.
🧄 Crayfish (Ground or Whole)
A powerful natural seasoning used in everything from ogbono to jollof rice. Just a spoonful adds that rich, umami taste that’s hard to replicate with stock cubes alone.
✔ Available in both ground and whole formats
Cleaned, sun-dried, and aromatic—just like it should be.
🍛 Suya Spice & Cameroon Pepper
No street food lover can ignore these. Suya spice adds that familiar kick to beef skewers and grilled meats, while Cameroon pepper is perfect for spicing up your soup or stew.
✔ Our blends are bold, smoky, and all-natural.
