La Bouillie
La bouillie is a Chadian breakfast made of rice or wheat, milk, flour, and peanut butter. Although it is typically made with the aforementioned ingredients, la bouillie is frequently modified with other ingredients, depending on what is available in each household.
La bouillie is a filling breakfast served hot, which helps warm the body after the country's surprisingly chilly desert nights. La Bouillie can be found at breakfast tables all over Chad. La bouillie, like kisra aseeda, is the closest thing to a porridge. It can be made with either whole wheat grains or rice, in which case it resembles rice puddings found all over the world.
La bouillie is similar to rice pudding in that it is made by boiling the rice or grain in milk. The natural sugars in milk provide sweetness. Flour is used to thicken the dish, and freshly prepared peanut butter is frequently added for flavor.
