A recipe from the island nation of Madagascar. This fiery mash is typically served on the side so diners can add as much or as little heat as they like. From the Soul of a New Cuisine: A Discovery of the Foods and Flavors of Africa. Ingredients:
3/4 cup chili powder |
1 tablespoon ground ginger |
1 1/2 teaspoons cayenne pepper |
1 teaspoon ground cumin |
4 garlic cloves, minced |
2 teaspoons salt |
