Dan wake

Danwake (dahn WAH-kay), also known as bean dumpling, is a dish of boiled cowpea flour dumplings from the northern part of Nigeria. It has little flavor of its own, and is usually garnished with sauce, egg, vegetables, or chili pepper.[1]

Origin

Dan wake originated in Niger, and has since spread to the Hausa-speaking area of northern Nigeria.[1]

Overview

Danwake is prepared by mixing ground cowpeas or wheat flour, kuka (baobab leaves powder), and potash with water to form a thick paste, which is formed into dumplings and boiled. The dumplings are typically garnished with fried vegetables, oil, seasonings, boiled eggs, yaji (which is a blend of different spices including cayenne pepper), or suya pepper.[2][3][4][5]
