Soaked garri

  • Pour water into the cereal bowl containing the dry Garri.
  • Sieve out any particle that floats
  • Pour more fresh water into the Garri
  • Then add sugar, pinch of salt (milk if using)
  • Add the groundnuts or any other topping you prefer. Then relax and enjoy ?

Ingredients

  • 1/4 cup Garri
  • 3 cups water
  • Some ice cubes optional
  • 3 cubes of Sugar / 1 Tbsp
  • 2 Tbsp Powdered milk optional
  • Pinch of salt optional

Toppings

  • 1/4 cup roasted groundnuts optional
  • 1/4 cup coconut
  • Strawberries & blueberries
Notes
  • Garri swells up quickly so start with a small quantity if you are eating this alone so you don’t find yourself wasting food.
  • If you are vegan. Just skip the addition of the milk. I really don’t think it will work with almond milk because it isn’t as creamy. But you can give it a try though.
