Hands up if you’ve eaten Athiéké! 🙌 A fresh take on a classic Ivorian staple, West-Africa gari is steamed to give it a light and fluffy texture, similar to couscous, and then mixed with finely chopped fresh vegetables and herbs for maximum texture and flavour. The perfect dish for Veganuary!

Directions
Bring water to the boil in a medium sized saucepan. When it comes to the boil place a colander or sieve on top.
Cut a round disc of parchment paper and place inside the colander. Then put the gari on top and seal tightly with foil.

Combine all the ingredients in a large bowl, mix well and season. Finish with lemon juice to your taste.
You can mix the vegetables with the athieke or serve them both separately.
