kenkey

     

Kenkey or Dokonu or Komi is a staple ish similar to a sourdough dumpling from West Africa, usually served with a soup, stew, or sauce. It is particularly popular in Ghana. It is usually made from ground corn (maize), like sadza and ugali. Unlike ugali, making kenkey involves letting the maize ferment before cooking. Therefore, preparation takes a few days in order to let the dough ferment. After fermentation, the kenkey is partially cooked, wrapped in banana leaves, corn husks, or foil, and steamed. There are several versions of Kenkey, such as Ga and Fanti kenkey.
