🇸🇳 Senegal recipe
Sombi
Sombi is Senegal's beloved coconut rice pudding, a creamy and fragrant dessert originating from the Casamance region. Slow-cooked in coconut milk until the rice breaks down into a luscious, porridge-like consistency, Sombi is often prepared during Ramadan as an iftar treat and for naming ceremonies. Its gentle sweetness and silky texture make it a comforting end to any meal or a soothing breakfast on cool mornings.
