Alloco

Alloco

Alloco, as it is called in Côte d'Ivoire, is called dodo in Nigeria, "Makemba" in DRCongo and kelewele in Ghana. It is a popular West African snack made from fried plantain. It is often served with chili pepper and onions. In Nigeria, it often serves as a side or can be consumed by itself.

Alloco is widely considered as fast-food and is sold on the streets of Côte d'Ivoire. An area with many grilled meat and alloco food vendors in the Cocody neighborhood are named Allocodrome after this dish.
