Domoda (also known as domoda farine or domodah) is a Senegalese dish.^[1][2][3] It is a smooth, tomato-based ragout prepared with vinegar and vegetables, to which flour is added to thicken the sauce. Domoda is one of the emblematic recipes of Senegalese gastronomy.^[4] Alongside dishes such as thieboudienne and yassa, it is a favorite in Senegal. It is consumed mainly in Senegal, Mauritania, The Gambia, Guinea-Bissau and Guinea.

Domoda can be made with meat or fish.^[5] It is usually served with white rice. Lemon juice is added to give it its distinctive tangy flavor.
