Fulani Boullie
A Fulani peanut-and-rice porridge with churned fermented milk and optional sugar.

About Fulani Boullie
Peerdeeri is a porridge in the Fulani repertoire of Diamaré, northern Cameroon. Henry Tourneux records this regional peanut-and-rice version after M.-J. Eguchi, within the wider mbusiri porridge family.
Peanuts give the porridge a nutty character, while churned fermented milk adds a tangy dairy note. Sugar is an optional addition for a sweeter bowl.
The rice and strained peanut liquid form a thick, spoonable porridge. Fermented milk gives the mixture a creamy finish.
