Tigernut and coconut are natural partners, and here they are milled and cooked into a smooth swallow that is gently sweet, nutty and noticeably rich. The coconut rounds out the tigernut and gives the finished swallow a soft, almost creamy texture.
The swallow itself is mild, so the pepper level is set entirely by your soup. It stands up well to egusi and ogbono, and it is lovely with okro, oha or bitter-leaf.
Prices are in RWF. Order online from Jollof Bistro for delivery in Kigali or pickup in Remera, or take a table and eat it fresh.
