Palm fruit soup goes by several names, Ofe Agwu in the South East and banga in the Delta, and it is one of the great West African pots. Fresh palm fruit is extracted into a thick, orange, gently tangy base, then seasoned with the aromatic banga spice blend that makes the whole kitchen smell of home.
Seafood is the protein here, its clean flavour balancing the richness of the palm fruit. The heat is warm and steady rather than sharp. Eat it with starch, eba, semo or pounded yam. Prices are in RWF.
