Gozo with peanut sauce
Central African Republic · Sub-Saharan Africa
- Short description
- This filling cassava preparation pairs a dense starch mound with a savory peanut-based sauce.
- Ingredients
- Cassava flour or fermented cassava dough served with peanut paste sauce, leafy greens, onion, chile, and sometimes fish or meat.
- Cultural note
- The starch-and-sauce pairing reflects a practical staple meal: neutral cassava carries a richer sauce made from shelf-stable peanuts and local greens.
- Common misconception
- It is not a dessert even though the cassava mound can look pale and soft; it is a savory meal base.
