🇸🇳 Senegal recipe
Thiakry
Thiakry is a refreshing Senegalese dessert of millet couscous folded into a sweet, creamy mixture of yogurt, condensed milk, and vanilla. Served chilled, it is the perfect cool treat on a hot Dakar afternoon. The nutty flavor of the millet pairs beautifully with the tangy sweetness of the dairy, while raisins and dried fruit add pops of sweetness. Thiakry is simple to prepare, requires no cooking after steaming the couscous, and is endlessly customizable.
