Waiting for a cook
Ghana
Etor is Ghana's ceremonial mash: boiled yam (or half-ripe plantain, or cocoyam) crushed roughly and mixed with palm oil and fried onions, shaped into a mound and topped with roasted peanuts, more onions, halved boiled eggs and slices of avocado. It is the dish of celebrations and rites of passage among the Akan, cooked for a girl's coming of age, for twins' birthdays and for the morning after a wedding, and eaten from one big bowl with the fingers.
The draft was written from 2 published sources and holds 9 ingredients and 6 steps. It has never been cooked by anybody at AFN, which is why it is waiting.
