Voanjobory

It is regarded as one of Madagascar's cult meals. The bambara pea, also known as ground pea, is a small earth bean with pods that grow underground like peanuts, earning it the Malagasy name voanjobory (voanjo which means peanut and bory which means round). It has a flavor similar to pistachio mixed with white beans.

It's commonly served fresh in Madagascar with pork or beef. Bambara peas, on the other hand, go well with fish. You can use canned or dried bambara peas in this dish, but it's even better if you can get fresh ones. If you're using dried peas, soak them overnight in water before using; fresh peas don't need to be soaked; simply wash them.
