Seen as food for the poor, traditional Basotho dishes aren't as popular in Lesotho as their Italian or American counterparts. As a result, the country's own food culture is fast disappearing.
In this episode, we meet chef Ska Moteane, the first chef to have published a cookbook dedicated to Basotho cuisine and who is committed to bringing traditional flavours back to the table.
Hosted by Tokunbo Salako.
Written and produced by Marta Rodríguez Martínez, Naira Davlashyan and Aisling Ní Chúláin.
With original reporting by Pascalinah Kabi and Naira Davlashyan.
The theme music is by Andy Robini.
