Waiting for a cook
Kenya
Matumbo is Swahili for tripe, and in Kenya it means the wet fry: cow or goat stomach cleaned, boiled soft for an hour or two, then simmered in a thick base of browned onion, tomato, garlic, ginger, turmeric and curry powder, finished with fresh dhania. It is butchery and nyama-choma-joint food, cheap and filling, eaten with ugali, rice or chapati. There is also a dry fry and a soupy stew, but the wet fry is the one people mean. South Africa's mogodu is the same cut cooked a different way.
The draft was written from 2 published sources and holds 13 ingredients and 7 steps. It has never been cooked by anybody at AFN, which is why it is waiting.
