Ghanaian dish “kanzagma” of beans by Gane-Asonge PS

The students and teachers from Gane-Asonge Primary School prepared Ghanaian national dish called “kanzagma” using beans.

Our cooking team

Local people don’t eat “kanzagma” every day, it is a meal that they make for special guests.

Ingredients needed for “kanzagma” we prepared:

• beans;
• water;
• salt bitter;
• groundnut oil;
• “yahzi” if you like  (made from “kulikuli” which gotten from groundnut);
• one onion;
• pepper and salt.

Instead of a blender we used our “local blender” called “atta aueia”  – “woman power blender” as our teachers named it.

First of all you have to put the beans into water for 30 minutes, after that you can grind them.
