Waiting for a cook
Ghana
Pinkaso are the savoury fried dough rings of Ghana's Hausa community: a yeasted flour batter spiked with blended onion, chilli and garlic, risen until bubbly, shaped into rough rings with wet fingers and dropped into hot oil until crisp outside and airy inside. They are the classic partner to a cup of Hausa koko (spiced millet porridge) at breakfast, sold together from the same roadside stall, and eaten on their own as a snack.
The draft was written from 2 published sources and holds 11 ingredients and 9 steps. It has never been cooked by anybody at AFN, which is why it is waiting.
