West African cuisine is unusual when the meat is a scarce and valuable and as a result, the dishes can be difficult to plant components, it is still difficult to find a great vegetarian dish. Part of the reason for this is that the dried fish, meat and fish by cutting the heads and feet of animals and their tails are often used as a condiment for the basic resources in almost every recipe. The same goes for the classic dishes of West chilihaltige 'Pepper> Soup ".
