History, social and cultural relevance
The dish, which originated from the northern parts of Ghana, may be the origin of the rice and beans dishes commonly found in the Caribbean and South America, brought there through slave trade. Waakye has become a part of the weekends of most Ghanaians with some preferring their waakye served in leaves instead of plates.
