Chinese nougat is a cousin of nkate cake. Like the sweets of Equatorial Guinea, it contains peanuts. The difference lies in the introduction of white sesame in its composition. Nkate cake is also close to French nougatine (brittle). Nougatine consists of almonds, roasted nuts and caramelized sugar.
Like many other Ghanaian dishes, there are no hard and fast rules to making nkate nkwan. Some people opt to fry the onions and tomatoes as they would in a stew prior to following the steps to introduce the peanut sauce. They would then finish off by adding enough water to create a soup consistency.
However, kongodo (or nkate cake) is the most popular traditional dessert of the country. Known as peanut brittle in the United States, nkate cake is relatively fast in execution.
