Nigerian Cuisine - Side Dishes

Side Dishes

  • Fried plantain (or dodo) is a side dish of plantains fried in vegetable oil or palm oil. It is preferably ripe plantain.
  • Funkaso, millet pancakes
  • Mosa, fermented corn, which is ground into a thick paste, fried and then sprinkled with sugar. It is an acquired taste. There is also an alternative made from very soft plantain which is mashed into a paste, mixed with dried black pepper, fried and then sprinkled with sugar, for those with a sweet tooth.

Famous quotes containing the words side and/or dishes:

    I learned early to understand that there is no such condition in human affairs as absolute truth. There is only truth as people see it, and truth, even in fact, may be kaleidoscopic in its variety. The damage such perception did to me I have felt ever since ... I could never belong entirely to one side of any question.
    Pearl S. Buck (1892–1973)

    Before she has her floor swept
    Or her dishes done.
    Any day you’ll find her
    A-sunning in the sun!
    Edna St. Vincent Millay (1892–1950)
