Karen's agro-processing kitchen

(Making Cassava Farine at home)

Exact same processes are applied as in making of ereba (cassava bread) except for the last stage. 

See below.

   

 

 Instead of baking and pressing to form the ereba, the sieved and dried grated cassava is roasted or patched in a wok at low heat and constantly stirred.

Cassava farine can be used like corn meal. 

It can be made into a tasty porridge, into muffins, or used to coat meat or seafood before frying or baking.

 Encouraging all members to plant things to eat in their yards.
