It's made with fragrant basmati rice or jasmine rice and beans (usually black-eyed peas or cow beans), cooked together with waakye leaves (sorghum leaves or stalks) that lend their pink-reddish brown hue to the rice.Oftentimes limestone or baking soda is added to bring out the subtle flavor of the leaves and deepen the coloring.
The leaves are usually removed before serving, however I always retain the dramatic architecturally sharp edges of the stalks poking out for aesthetic reasons.Who said Scorpios were dramatic?!.
