Ẹchịcha (also, Achịcha) is a dish native to the Igbo part of Nigeria consisting mainly of dried cassava, mgbụmgbụ, and palm oil. It is traditionally eaten in the dry season when fresh vegetables are hard to come by.
Ẹchịcha is made by steaming the dried cocoyam and mgbụmgbụ until they are soft, then mixing the two thoroughly with a sauce made of palm oil, ụgba,[1] onions, fresh pepper, and salt.[2]
