About this dish
Agidi is a staple food eaten across West Africa. It is mostly popular among people of Southern and parts of Northern Nigeria. The Ngwa Igbos refer to it as Àsụrụàsụ Oka, Nri Oka, or Agidi (Igbo), Eko/Agidi(Yoruba), Akasan(Benin), Komu(Hausa), Kafa(Ghana), Akwapim (Togo). It is often described as a Nigerian jelly-like dish and is made in a way similar to pap. Agidi also has a variant known as “Agidi Jollof,” which is prepared similarly to Jollof rice. Agidi Jollof is most similar to the mesoamerican tamale dish. It is made with corn flour and water.
