A.F.P Gari Yellow 900g

Gari is a fine to coarse granular flour of varying texture made from cassava tubers (also called cassava roots) which are cleaned after harvesting, grated, water and starch squeezed out of it, left to ferment and then fried either in palm oil or without palm oil and serves as a major staple food in West Africa. It is also called garri or gali in some parts of sub-Saharan Africa. It is also popular in South America, where it is called manioc Flour (Farinha de Mandioca). The yellow Gari is prepared by frying with the addition of palm oil to give it a yellow color; while white garri is fried without palm oil.

INGREDIENTS

White tapioca (100%), red palm oil.

HOW TO USE

Gari can be eaten without further cooking, as a snack, by placing it in a bowl and adding cold water, sugar, groundnut and milk. This is usually called garri soakings. For example, ijebu-garri is made with finer grains, and has a pleasantly sour taste, making it very suitable to be eaten in this way.

STORAGE
