Preparation

1 h
  1. Roast the peanuts and grind them to obtain a fine paste.
  2. Sort and soak the madjanga (crayfish).
  3. Pour the water into the pot.
  4. When the water boils, take out half of it and set it aside; add the chosen protein and the peanut paste to the boiling water left on the heat.
  5. Stir vigorously to avoid lumps. At first you will have a rather liquid mixture, but it will thicken.
  6. Gradually add the other half of the water; the oil will rise to the surface. Count on about 10 minutes of cooking over medium heat.
  7. While stirring constantly, add salt and chili. Form a ball with the mixture and put it into the banana leaves.
  8. Tie firmly and cook for 30 minutes over low heat.
  9. Serve with cassava sticks or plantain.
