INTRODUCTION

1.1       BACKGROUND OF THE STUDY

Cameroonian cuisine is one of the most varied in Africa due to its location on the crossroads between the North, West, and centre of the continent; added to this is the profound influence of French food, a legacy of the colonial era. Staple foods in Cameroon include cassava, yam, rice, plantain, potato, maize, beans and millet. The French introduced French bread and Italian pasta, which are not as widely consumed. The main source of protein for most inhabitants is fish, poultry and meat. Chicken and plantains are two important ingredients used a lot in the African cuisine. And a favourite way to enjoy both of them may be the Cameroonian recipe called Poulet DG (Humphery, 2010).

Poulet DG is a casserole of chicken, plantains and vegetables. This recipe is not only delicious but it can also be very healthy if less amount of oil is used. This dish dates from the 80s and comes from Bamiléké (in the western region of Cameroon) (Mead, 2011). "DG" in DG chicken comes from "CEO" which implies chicken executive officer. It is so named because originally it was reserved for people of a certain social importance. However, presently poulet DG is completely democratized, especially as ingredients falling within its composition are accessible to all.

Therefore, this project is on preparation of chicken plantain poulet DG.
