Nkatie Cake

Ghana

What we know so far

Nkatie cake ("nkateɛ" is groundnut in Twi) is Ghana's two-ingredient sweet: roasted groundnuts crushed coarsely and stirred into sugar melted to a caramel, rolled out on an oiled board and cut into diamonds while still hot. It is the snack of school gates and lorry parks, sold wrapped in paper for a few pesewas, and a childhood business for many Ghanaian cooks. Togo calls it konkada and Sierra Leone granat cake.
