Garri is a popular West-African food processed from cassava tubers. It is considered a ‘life-saving’ food by many and is versatile enough to be prepared into a variety of meals. Jumia Travel, the leading online travel agency, shares 4 varieties of sumptuous dishes garri can be made into.
Howbeit fairly unpopular, this is a sumptuous and easy to prepare dish with lots of milky deliciousness to enjoy.
The cake is made by combining dry Garri with little water, then incorporating butter and sugar to the mix to form a cake-like structure.
A mixture of butter, sugar and milk is used as the icing. The cake is more like a cookie cake than a sponge cake. The cake is dense due to the nature of the Garri, but delicious all the same.
If you are not adventurous enough to try this cake with garri, you can substitute the garri for cassava flour.
This is one of the most popular Garri combinations in existence. Water (cold or warm) is added to a specific quantity of Garri and mixed with the desired amount of groundnuts (peanuts).

If you choose to, you can add some powdered milk to the mix and enjoy.
