About Asida
This Asida is the millet-flour preparation in the Kuku section of the Equatoria community cookbook. The collection records home and community foods shared by South Sudanese Equatorians living in Western Australia.
Millet flour supplies the grain flavour in this simple flour-and-water recipe. The selected preparation keeps that cereal character at the centre of the dish.
The cooked mixture is presented in a large communal bowl, with guests helping themselves. Its smoothness reflects the recipe’s emphasis on avoiding lumps.
