We have been back in Bermuda a week now and battling allergies. Unlike Zimbabwe, Bermuda is damp and humid and whenever I return I start sneezing and feel sick. I really did not want to do anything until now.
We had a great Christmas with friends and are looking forward to the New Year. Today I am sharing with you this wings recipe that would work pretty well for your new year’s party.
This wings are glazed with a hot sauce made with mazhanje jam that is sweet and spicy. I made them when I was in Zimbabwe and my father who normally would not try anything sweet and spicy, indulged me and he loved them.
You can totally change the level of spiciness by adjusting the hot spice you use. Here is the full recipe:
