Senegalese Okra Stew (Soupe Kandia)

The Senegalese okra stew, called soupe kandia (kandia means okra in Wolof) locally, is a delicious stew made with okra and seafood. It is one of the most popular dishes in Senegal.

Avoid using large okra when preparing this stew as they are usually dry. It can be served with rice, fufu, and souloukhou, a tasty Senegalese peanut butter sauce.

Enjoy this classic Senegalese okra stew!
