Mbon Lep (Water-Soaked Cassava)

Mbon Lep (Water-Soaked Cassava)

A simple way to recycle leftover boiled cassava. In the villages of southern Cameroon, leftover water-cooked cassava is diced, enclosed in a permeable but sturdy bag and placed downstream of a fresh "drinkable" water source so the bag always stays in fresh, renewed water. In town, where there is no spring, you proceed as follows.

    You can serve them as an appetizer, in which case drain them and put them in bowls. They can also serve as an accompaniment to a dish.
