How to cook THE PERFECT KENYAN UGALI Recipe

[@NairobiKitchen]

My #30DaysOfCooking challenge could not end without this staple Kenyan Meal. Eaten almost daily with different vegetables and meats, it's so easy to make, so #DAY23 is especially dedicated to it.

Just a note to anyone assuming she's using wheat flour- this is refined cornmeal flour, not the flour we use for baking in the US. It's sweeter and more textured ❤

[@katrinaadia2067]

Paper Crowns I thought Ugali is supposed to be made with maize flour?

[@justforfun-2751]

@@katrinaadia2067 it is maize flour is not wheat flour

[@justforfun-2751]

It’s Maize flour not wheat

[@TheTororist]

@@katrinaadia2067 cornmeal is maize flour

[@Crayray57]

For all those wondering, maize flour/meal is coursely ground to a consistency almost like semolina or polenta. It is NOT sweet since it's not from sweet corn but rather usual/standard white maize.

I had heard of this, Ugali made from corn flour. In India we prepare this from wheat flour called khichu and make crunchy papad with it. Looks yummy.Nice...😋😅

[@kevinngatia8808]

[@anntv1263]

I want to know about this ugali?

[@NairobiKitchen]

Its our staple food here in Kenya, a mix of maizw flour or maize meal and water mixed to form a dough like texture though a bit soft, cooked and usually eaten with vegetables and meats as sides

[@anntv1263]

I’m not familiar on that just I heard to all my Kenyan Friends in FB

[@anntv1263]

I’m very curious because lots of my Kenyan friends told me about that

[@NairobiKitchen]

Its very popular in almost all homes, thats why, have you tried it before?

[@emk6360]

My sadza eaters, this is what we call ugali and one can add margarine on the boiling water

[@putyndisa289]

Nice

[@NairobiKitchen]

Thanks for watching!

[@samuelgathiuwangari]

I know how to cook ugali but was wondering whether there is a way to cook it without having it stick on the normal sufurias.

[@Crayray57]

That's how it cooks properly. If you use a non stick pot, the crust (mokoro) will keep mixing back into the ugali as you mix it. If you want the sufuria to get clean faster, just pour hot water in it once you remove/serve the ugali. It comes out faster than with cold water.

[@misshaellapayas2882]

Why bring it all to the side of the sufuria? Just curious

[@NairobiKitchen]

It makes it easier to place mwiko underneath and turn the ugali

[@deboraabwoga7719]

🤤🤤🤤🥰

[@muayboran6111]

Mone doesn’t come out like that… i used corn flour and it became gloopy and not the same colour.

[@BT-rp6by]

[@1023Endurance]

Hey, am not sure if you have tasted Polenta, but its a bit similar

[@1023Endurance]

Willl it make run faster though !?

[@justforfun-2751]

@@1023Endurance no 😭😭

[@8419jumaeliud]

It has a complex taste.Hard to describe.That is why it has to be taken with any kind of stew;meat,vegetables,fish or even milk.

[@mosesnjuguna]

No water measurements

[@NairobiKitchen]

1 have the measurements on my written recipe on my blog, but it's an estimation, the measurement depends on the number of people, but for one person is say 1 cup flour to 1/2-1 Cups Water that is added little by little
