Ingi Dei in Suriname!

Ingi Dei in English means Indigenous Day.

August 9th is the day we celebrate the Indigenous people and Javanese Immigration. On this day, I enjoy the culture of the indigenous people a little extra. As a foodie, I've always loved the different food creations these people make.

As my roots are a mixture of the Ingi and Maron (near Cottica - Plantage Marseille), I've stated that I least need to learn how to prepare/make the one dish I am allowed to eat, that is prepared from cassava/yuka.

Now I'm here sharing my dish with you... cooked on Saturday evening, gobble on Sunday midday!

Preparation:

The finished product 😄

As I said above... this was gobbled up!
The peprewatra has only 5 ingredients (for me!):

1. Kadekra - cassava water
2. Fish or meat - we usually use wild meat [pakira, pingo, bofru, wild boar] or anjoemara as fish.
3. peppers! lots of them, or just 4 very very very hot ones.
4. salt
5. black pepper

I enjoyed my day at the pool that day! I hope my Surinamese friends and family did too, where ever they celebrated this day.
