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.
