Delicious Fufu

Fufu is a popular food in West Africa. It looks like a large dough ball. When you eat fufu, you pinch pieces of the dough into your hands. Then you dip the pieces into some soup. It is common to eat fufu with peanut soup.

People make fufu in different ways. One way is to use flour and mix it with water. Another way is to boil some yams (which are like sweet potatoes). Sometimes people also mix in a type of banana called a plantain.

There are many kinds of fufu because it is common in many different African cultures. It is also popular on some Caribbean islands. This is because many people on these islands have West African ancestors who brought it with them. Each culture has its own version of fufu, and they are all delicious.
