Chakery, also spelled thiakry or thiacry and known as bode in Fulani or degue in Bambara, is a sweet millet couscous dish eaten across West Africa. Its earliest recipes trace to the Fulani herding people of what is now northern Senegal, from where it spread throughout the region. Wheat or millet granules are mixed with milk, sweetened condensed milk or yogurt, along with dried fruit such as raisins, desiccated coconut and spices such as nutmeg, and it is served today in Senegal and the Gambia as a popular dessert.
