Waiting for a cook
Chad
Daraba is the sauce Chad is best known for outside Chad: okra, tomato, sweet potato and aubergine simmered together, thickened at the end with peanut paste and a handful of greens. It is served over boule, the thick millet or sorghum porridge, or over rice. It is usually meatless, which makes it one of the cheapest and most common sauces in the country, though a piece of dried fish or meat can go in.
The draft was written from 4 published sources and holds 11 ingredients and 7 steps. It has never been cooked by anybody at AFN, which is why it is waiting.
