Ugali

Yesterday, we had supper with our friends in town. Our friend Ken is from Kenya and so we have been asking him and his wife many questions about life in Kenya. They had us over and Ken made us a classic Kenyan dish Ugali! It is a common side at a meal and is a stiff starchy food. You can pick it up in your hands, roll it up and make a hole in it where you can scoop up whatever other food you are eating with it. He had a stir-fry type dish on the side with it with meat and peppers. It was all very good!
