Last December I mentioned baking some classic cookies made from the West African cassava meal called "gari." It's now March, and I'm finally sharing the recipe--just in time for spring celebrations, or Easter, or graduations, or a special teatime snack. These crispy cookies are simple to make, and have an uncluttered, fresh, pure taste. All that's missing is the obligatory booming voice and thunder/lightning-strike sound effect ;) Well, this is the last one I've got up my sleeve for now. These Garri cookies is definitely a must-try.
