What is Garri?
Garri is a granular flour made from fermented, grated, and roasted cassava tubers. It is a widely consumed staple food across West Africa and among African diaspora communities around the world. Garri is not only versatile and easy to prepare but also known for its long shelf life and high energy content.
Garri is enjoyed in two primary ways:
-
As a swallow meal with soups
-
As a cold snack or cereal, soaked in water with sugar, milk, or groundnuts
