🇸🇳 Senegal recipe
Ndambé
Ndambé is the quintessential Senegalese breakfast, a robust and spicy black-eyed pea stew served tucked inside a crusty baguette or alongside bread. Every morning across Senegal, street vendors ladle this hearty stew from steaming pots for workers and students on their way to start the day. The combination of creamy beans, fiery scotch bonnet, and tangy tomato creates a deeply satisfying dish that fuels the nation.
