It is known as GARRI in West Africa.
It is called AIPIM in Portugal.
I believe it has a special name from where you're from. Feel free to share.

Note!

The leaf contains a high concentration of hydrocyanic acid. Hence, it must be well cooked before consumption. Inadequate cooking an lead to an increased risk of poisoning. Don't fret it.

Hola sirmiraculous. Es una hermosa y bondadosa planta; en Venezuela se aprovecha su raíz para elaborar un pan llamado casabe, durante el proceso hay una etapa de extracción de la sustancia tóxica para luego proceder a su molienda y hacer el pan similar a una delgada torta que luego es asada.

Buen trabajo fotográfico.
