Notes about Recipes in this book

  • Bassamoise salad

    • lkgrover on August 06, 2024

      Good tuna "salad" with lots of vegetables & herbs. I substituted polenta for attieke. Also, marinated the tuna & then cooked it (because raw fish makes me nervous); then mixed in with the other ingredients & added more of the lemon, lime, & vinegar. Served for dinner as the main entree.

  • Fried plantains (Allokos)

    • lkgrover on February 05, 2024

      Quick fried plantains--cooks in 5 minutes! Good side dish or healthy snack.

Publishers Text

In this vibrant and generous celebration of food, friendship and conviviality, photographer Aline Princet and Anto Cocagne, a young chef from Gabon, invite musicians, writers, artists and creatives from all over African, south of the Sahara, to share their recipes and bring the spotlight to focus on the rich diversity of African food. The 80 authentic recipes showcased here include the best dishes from Gabon, Senegal, Ivory Coast, Cameroon, Congo and Ethiopia, and with each recipe comes information on its origins, its key ingredients and tips and advice for the home cook on how to cook them to perfection. They use fruit, grains, vegetables, spices and are delicious, healthy, often vegetarian or vegan and some gluten-free. Interwoven throughout are interviews with the artists who talk about what African food means to them. Saka Saka pays tribute to food-loving Africans and African culture and invites us all in to taste and savour.
