Waiting for a cook
Comoros
Madjimbi ya nazi is Comorian home cooking at its plainest and best: chunks of taro (songe, madjimbi) poached until nearly tender, layered with beef that has been pre-cooked the ntibe way with salt and ginger, then finished in a litre of coconut milk until the taro is soft and the sauce has thickened and clung to it. A splash of thick coconut cream at the end makes it richer. It is a lunch dish for the family table, served on its own or with rice.
The draft was written from 2 published sources and holds 8 ingredients and 6 steps. It has never been cooked by anybody at AFN, which is why it is waiting.
