Made by Maame Esi, straight from her kitchen to your door. Just heat, eat, and enjoy.
Maame Esi has been cooking West African food for over 30 years. She learned in the kitchen with her mum back home in Ghana. Today, she has turned that passion into By Maamee, bringing her home cooking straight to your door.
For anyone missing real West African cooking in London, or anyone curious to try it for the first time, By Maamee is made to feel like home, from the first bite to the last.
Good food should not be hard to find. By Maamee cooks real West African meals using ingredients most kitchens do not use, like Bambara beans and agushi seeds. Every sauce is made from scratch and simmered low and slow, then delivered straight to your door, so all you have to do is heat it up and enjoy.
Made from scratch, every time. Our sauces and stews are made by hand. Never from a jar.

Fresh, never frozen. Every meal is cooked fresh and kept cold, not frozen and reheated.

As someone eating a plant-based diet, I get tired of boring bland salads and dry grain bowls. This dish is rich, savoury, and incredibly fresh. The combo of beans, okra, and peppers gives it plenty of fiber and protein to keep me full through my afternoon workouts. Absolutely ordering this every week!
I loved the Red Red. The stew had a really good depth to it and the plantain wasn’t too soft, it held together well even on the next day.
Had the ampesi with kontomire and it took me right home. The plantain were soft and the kontomire stew was so flavourful. Great for when you don't have time to cook.
The Seafood Mix Bowl was delicious. I was surprised by how good it was, it became my favourite out of my 6 meals this week. Highly recommend.
I ordered for my work lunches and it’s been reliable every single time. Definitely keeping this on rotation.
Been ordering the Check Check Beef for the past two weeks. It's consistent in taste, portion is generous, and the beef is always tender. My regular go to now!!
Hands down the best meal prep service I’ve tried. The flavour profile on every meal is incredible, the meat is always tender, and it genuinely tastes like home cooking instead of factory prep.
As a vegan, finding good meal prep can be tough, but the Mushroom Jollof Bowl and Bambara Bean Salsa Bowl are top tier. Loaded with flavour and keeps me energized all afternoon.
Tried the Lean Beef Stew Bowl on my 5-meal plan this week. The beef was incredibly tender and the greens paired really well with the steamed rice. Saves me hours of cooking!
The food is always on point. Great taste, good portions and it actually feels like proper Ghanaian food. Will keep ordering.
Food has been really good every time. Always fresh, flavourful and feels like a home cooked meal. I’ve been enjoying it a lot.
I was tired of cooking every day so I tried the 5-meal plan. It’s been really worth it, saves me time and money and I actually look forward to my meals.
The Lean Beef Stew Bowl was delicious. It was satisfying and tasted fresh even on day 3 of my meal prep. One of my favourites.
Been on the 5-meal plan for a month now and I’ve been really happy with it. Makes my week so much easier and the food has been consistently good.
