Um'bido RecipeOrigin: sub-Saharan Africa Period: Traditional |
|
This sauce, also known as Maafe, is common to much of sub-Saharan Africa and is a sticky stew intended to be eaten with FuFu though it can also be eaten with rice. The greens used also vary and are often the greens of legminous plants rather than spinach and it can also include meat and/or seafood. Ingredients
900g spinach 
Um'bido Preparation:Method:Cook the spinach in just enough water to cover. After about 4 minutes sprinkle in the peanuts and stir-in well. Cover and continue to cook over medium heat for about 30 minutes, adding more water if necessary to prevent burning. Drain before serving and mix-in the oil, salt and pepper. My wife makes a variant of this chilli um'bido that includes chillies. |
