Waiting for a cook
Zimbabwe
Gango takes its name from the Shona ku kanga, to fry, and that is the whole idea: a pan of mixed meats, whatever the butcher or the braai left you, fried hard together in stages until every piece is browned, then finished with onion, curry powder, tomato and a handful of greens. Pork belly, boerewors, kidney and liver is one classic mix; bone-in beef with boerewors is another. It is the dish of the roadside braai stand and the Sunday pan, eaten with sadza, and every cook's version is different because the meats change with what is to hand.
The draft was written from 2 published sources and holds 11 ingredients and 6 steps. It has never been cooked by anybody at AFN, which is why it is waiting.
