About Thiebou Yapp
Thiebou yapp is a traditional Senegalese rice-and-meat dish. Oumou Bah's version uses beef with fragrant rice, carrot, potato, pumpkin and green cabbage.
Onion, garlic, bay leaves and Dijon mustard season the cooking liquid. Chillies and black pepper bring heat; bouillon cubes and yété are optional additions.
