Waiting for a cook
Comoros
Ntibe is the plainest and most Comorian way with meat: cubes of beef (or goat) cooked in a heavy pot with nothing but salt and a little water, added a glass at a time, until the meat is tender and then browned in its own fat, with a last splash of water to make the small, dark, concentrated sauce the islands call wondjo. Three ingredients, but Comorian cooks say cooking it well is an art: watch, stir, add water only as needed. It is served with coconut rice, fried green bananas (and a little tomato rougail), or lihoho.
The draft was written from 2 published sources and holds 5 ingredients and 6 steps. It has never been cooked by anybody at AFN, which is why it is waiting.
