Attiéké

Attiéké is a traditional West African dish, particularly popular in Côte d'Ivoire (Ivory Coast). It is made from fermented cassava (yuca) that has been grated and then steamed into small, couscous-like grains. The dish has a slightly tangy flavor due to the fermentation process and is often served as a side dish.

Attiéké is typically paired with grilled or fried fish, chicken, or other meats, along with vegetables and sauces. It can also be eaten with spicy pepper sauces or salads. The dish is known for its light, fluffy texture, making it a versatile and filling accompaniment to various meals.

In Côte d'Ivoire, attiéké is a staple food and is enjoyed across all social classes. It is also becoming increasingly popular in other parts of West Africa and within the African diaspora.
