Garri & Groundnut
In Nigeria, garri & groundnut is the
single most popular street snack.
Made with cassava flakes, this
watery somewhat messy mixture is
usually sweetened with sprinklings
of sugar and milk, topped with
groundnuts. Some others prefer
to combine their flakes with suya
(roasted meat), groundnut, kulikuli
(snacks made from groundnut),
coconut, fried meat, fish (raw,
cooked or fried). In Nigeria, there’s
two types of cassava flakes (white
and yellow), so, be sure to request
for the former to achieve the right
local mix.

These skillfully cut sheets of meat are an
original staple of the northern part of Nigeria.
Kilishi also known as Kilichi is basically
meat jerky sun-dried and immersed in slurry
groundnut cake, sugar, salt and peppered
spices, best gotten from the country’s capital,
Abuja. Choose from the red kilishi (super spicy)
or the white one (not-so-spicy), or just get one
of each and call it a day.
