Fufu is a food made from fresh or fermented cassava, a staple in the region. The cassava is pounded into flour, then mixed with water and cooked over heat into a paste of varying textures depending on the meal you are serving it with or your preference.
You can find versions of fufu all over Africa, of course with the ensuing arguments about whose is better. But in general, any version of this hot, starchy paste eaten with your hands and dipped into your favorite sauce or stew is a delight that everyone should try.
