Levi Roots Wows the Crowds at Free Lazy Sunday Concert

As part of the launch of Levi Roots' new range of Caribbean meals, Levi Roots hosted a free Lazy Sunday concert on Sunday 30th May on Clapham Common. From visitors to Clapham Common chilled out and listened to some Reggae sounds whilst enjoying a sample of Levi Roots' new range of meals - all for free.

Levi Roots and his band played, along with a number of support bands and there was even a chance to speak to Levi as he mingled with the crowd. The musician, chef and 'Dragon slayer' has launched a delicious range of Chilled Caribbean Meals which includes dishes such as Jamaican Coconut Chicken Curry, Reggae Reggae Chicken and Caribbean Curried Noodles.

Levi's latest launch brings the sunshine of the Caribbean to your table, providing a tasty alternative to any mealtime. The range is made with quality ingredients and includes nine dishes to suit different tastes; so everyone can enjoy the spicy flavours of Levi's Jamaican heritage.

Commenting on his Jamaican Coconut Chicken Curry, Levi says: "I've been making coconut chicken curry since way back, it's based on a traditional coconut rundown recipe but I've added a new twist with mangos, aubergines and chillies. Served with rice and peas this is real home style Jamaican cooking which takes me back to my childhood."

He continues: "Reggae Reggae Chicken, it's so nice I had to name it twice. I wanted to bring this special recipe out of my kitchen and on to your table, so I've played with the recipe to make it perfect, it’s the classic Reggae Reggae taste with chicken, tomato, onions and that original kick of chilli."

Levi's success has been nothing short of a whirlwind and he has even been invited to no.10 in recognition of his notable success as a black man in Britain attaining financial achievement through enterprise. Levi equates his success to putting himself into the product.
