Palm nut soup (Abenkwan)

(Palm nut soup)

Abenkwan is a hearty Ghanaian dish consisting of palm nut pulp, water, fish or meat, tomatoes, onions, and flavorings such as pepper, salt, garlic, and chili peppers. The combination of these ingredients is cooked until it develops a thick, stewy texture.


The soup is sometimes served as a starter before the main meal, although it is also commonly served as an accompaniment to fufu or rice dishes.
