My search of fufu always resulted eating banku. Banku is fermented maize and is quite yummy. I ate the meal below all wrong. You are supposed to put pieces of fish and chilly paste in to a small ball of banku and eat it. I ate the fish first and then the banku and chilli paste. Not bad but would have been better if I had eaten it right. Our friend only explained the proper procedure at the end of the meal. Anyways, this is a meal I am looking forward to eating again. Cheers!
The not so impressive Okra soup: The okra soup was really sticky. This comes from adding water before the water of the okra is dried. This would be a strict no no in India. But I am told that is how Ghanians like their okra soup.
Three weeks in Accra and no Fufu to be found. So I made some myself from a powdered version. In Accra no one uses this version. They pound boiled yams and cassava. But since they were not selling any I had to make my own. Its not kneaded in to perfect balls but it tastes awesome with home made okra soup.
