SAINT LOUIS, SENEGAL – Today we’re cooking and eating one of the most popular Senegalese foods, known as poulet yassa, or just yassa. It’s a dish of, in this case chicken, with onions and mustard sauce. You’ll find it all over Senegal and all over the world now, but originally from Senegal. It’s an amazing dish, so simple, and yet so tasty. We’re going to see the entire cooking process, and then be able to eat another amazing meal in Senegal, West Africa!

Thank you to Diana for hosting us at her amazing restaurant in old town of Saint Louis. We started with a whole local chicken, cut down and then fried in oil. The chicken was then combined with a huge bucket of onions, mustard, and a bunch of seasoning and and spices and served with rice. Again, poulet yassa is a dish that you’ll find throughout Senegal, it’s one of the most common dishes. I think it’s easy to make and it’s a food that everyone – young and old and enjoy. I was surprised at how tasty it is!

From Saint Louis we continued on this food tour to the amazing sand dunes of the Lompoul Desert of Senegal. The dunes were beautiful, we rode camels and then we ended with a local couscous dinner at the Lompoul Ecolodge. Dinner was delicious, and the local drumming was incredible – a great way to end the evening.

And that completes another delicious day, eating Senegalese food in West Africa!

    How I could tuck into that😂. Yummy. Thank you Mark. That juice though….second glass 😅😅😅. My Africa’s so beautiful. We need to make it easier for us Africans to explore our own continent. Never been to Senegal….would love to visit.

    Seeing Diana cook the chicken yassa made me feel so relaxed, something about that woman’s demeanor emanated warmth, kindness and joy.

    I know another way not to swallow your fingers when you eat… USE A SPOON AND FORK …eating with your hands is so messy and nasty

    You can tell he really like Senegalese food. When you which his videos from Eastern Europe a lot of that is phoned in. I think it's because some cultures like African and south east Asian cuisines prefer strong flavours whereas Northern and Eastern European cuisines are more simple.

    Hi Mark. I love watching your clips and I do wish that I could be a full-time eater as well! P.S. I always wonder why you still look slim even after eating so much good food😂 Please tell me the secret if you have time. Merci!

    Its amazing how similar things can be across the world I visited an island that made almost this exact dish in the caribbean <3 Then again prob bc of the strong African influence. This video was awesome to watch

    The baobab tree is the second most sacred tree amongst my people. We call our fathers by its name colloquially
