Ingredients

  • 2 large Cassava
  • 1/2 cup Vegetable Oil
  • 1 medium Onion
  • 2 inches Ginger
  • 2 Chili Peppers
  • 1 tsp Salt
  • 1/2 tsp Black Pepper

Method

  1. Peel the cassava and cut it into long, thin strips, then soak them in cold water for at least 30 minutes to remove excess starch.
  2. Drain the cassava strips and dry them thoroughly with paper towels to prevent excess moisture.
  3. Heat oil in a deep frying pan over medium-high heat until it reaches 350°F, about 5 minutes, then carefully add the cassava strips in batches and fry until golden-brown, 3-4 minutes per side.
  4. In a separate pan, heat 2 tablespoons of oil over medium heat, then add diced onion and cook stirring occasionally until translucent, 5 minutes.
  5. Add grated ginger and diced chili peppers to the pan and cook, stirring constantly, for 1 minute, until fragrant.
  6. Stir in the fried cassava strips and cook for an additional 2 minutes, until they are well coated with the spicy mixture.
  7. Season with salt and black pepper to taste, then serve the kelewele hot, garnished with chopped fresh herbs if desired.
