Authentic West African Yassa Poisson - Serigne Mbaye and Jessica Nabongo

Let’s make authentic Yassa Poisson! In this video, I had the honor of cooking Yassa, a classic Senegalese dish, with the incredible Jessica Nabongo. Jessica is a global citizen, master storyteller, travel expert, and author of The Catch Me If You Can. Together, we dive into the flavors and techniques of this beloved dish, featuring fresh snapper, caramelized onions, and a blend of spices that represent the heart of Senegalese cuisine.

As we cook, I reflect on the rich heritage that inspires the dishes at Dakar NOLA. From tips on perfecting fluffy rice to elevating traditional Yassa, this video is a celebration of culture, connection, and, of course, incredible food. Join us in the kitchen, and let us know if you’ve ever tried Yassa or plan to recreate this dish at home!
