Ugandan Street food from the Mountains, malewa dish

#ugandanfood #eatingbamboo #streetfood
In Uganda,Malewa refers to a traditional dish made from smoked bamboo shoots, which is a specialty of the Bagisu (or Gisu) people of the eastern region, particularly around Mount Elgon. The bamboo shoots are harvested, cleaned, and then smoked over an open fire to preserve them. These smoked bamboo shoots are then rehydrated and cooked, often with groundnut (peanut) sauce, to create a nutritious and flavorful meal.Malewa is an important cultural dish among the Bagisu, especially during significant events such as the traditional male circumcision ceremonies known as "Imbalu." The dish is valued not only for its unique taste but also for its cultural significance and nutritional benefits.
you might be asking yourself how Malewq tastes....this is what I think...it tastes like mushrooms just that malewa has hard fibers...and it can easy be mistaken for a piece of meat...
