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.

Preparation
24 h- Cut your cassava into cubes and rinse them in clean water.
- Place the cassava cubes in the salad bowl and cover them generously with fresh water.
- Let soak for at least 24 hours, changing the water each day. The cassava cubes will become saturated with water.
- If you do not eat all of it right away, drain only the desired amount and leave the rest in the water until you eat it.
- 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.
