Ladob
Seychelles · Sub-Saharan Africa
Ladob is a Seychellois dish cooked in coconut milk, with sweet and savoury versions. The dessert can use ripe plantain, sweet potato or breadfruit, simmered with sugar, nutmeg and vanilla until the ingredients soften and the sauce becomes creamy. Cinnamon also appears in the cultural foundation’s description of banana ladob.[1]
The savoury version uses salted fish and salt in place of sugar. Both forms can be eaten hot or cold.[1][2]
