Kuskusky

Kuskusky is a traditional West African dish, primarily associated with the Hausa people of Nigeria and surrounding regions. It is a type of porridge made from ground grains, typically millet or sorghum. The grains are often pre-processed through techniques like soaking or fermentation to improve digestibility and flavor. The consistency of kuskusky can vary from a thick gruel to a thinner porridge, depending on the preparation and personal preference.

The dish is often served as a breakfast meal or a light supper. Kuskusky is typically eaten plain or with additions such as milk, sugar, honey, or groundnuts (peanuts). Spices may also be added for flavour. It is a staple food in many Hausa communities due to its affordability, nutritional value, and ease of preparation. While the exact ingredients and cooking methods may vary locally, the fundamental principle remains the same: a simple porridge made from ground grains.
