Proximate composition and amino acid profile of raw and SSF- processed GOC are presented in Table 1. SSF of GOC brought about decrease in crude fibre content and ANFs (tannin, phytic acid and trypsin inhibitor) significantly (P < 0.05), whereas contents of crude protein, lipid, ash, total free amino acids and fatty acids were enhanced as compared to the raw GOC. Amino acid profile revealed
