I am excited to have found this website as we live in Uganda and when we visit the States, people are always asking how to make our food. Now I can send them to your site. I was wondering if you know how to make chaps – a flattened meat dipped in egg. Could you give the recipe for this one?
You are welcome Sally,
Mingi love
Dear Rose
I have just come across your website, it real amazing.
Well i have been doing this Ubuyu business for a while, the truth is i feel good doing this business because the fruit itself is very important to the human body, resent research shows that Ubuyu increases CD4( for people who have HIV/AIDS). IT’S NOT JUST selling, IT’S SAVING LIVES!!!
Anyone who wants to be my partner, distributor or end user please give them my email address
Regards
I am sure they are reading this email right now.
Thanks for sharing Beatrix.

Mimi ni Mkenya!!..I totally loved your video on how to cook chapati. Your video, believe it or not, helps rescue over 99% of the East African men in the US that crave chapati but have no idea how to cook them. Thanks to our traditions back home where the women are the official “chefs” and men just wait to be fed…LOL. Anyhow….I was listening to a Tanzanian song and in the song they reference the phrase “Ugali na kisafu”…I know ugali….but what is Kisafu?
Many thanks Ed,
I thought there was a need to have a well informed video for chapati after having a few badly cooked chapatis in some homes.
I am glad that you can understand it well.

I would like to taste “mchicha” in London. I enjoyed this food in Tabora and Dar with every meal!
I will ask my friends from UK to tell me if they get mchicha in UK and send you an email.
Karibu tena.
I am fr Dar..I cook mchicha at least once a week and eat with beef or chicken curry as a side dish.
Buy a frozen packet of chopped spinach and empty the contents into a medium sauce pan on medium heat Next add one medium sliced sweet onion, one sliced tomato ( use Romano), add pinch of red chilli powder, and add coconut milk( I use Maggie powder). I dilute the powder with hot water. Start with more powder n less water to make a rich coconut milk. You can add more as it get cooked if desired. 4 tablespoons of coconut milk to half a cup of warm or hot water. Remember the spinach will release its water contents so don’t make the coconut milk too light. Let the ingredients cook well and lower the temp and taste for salt n spiciness accordingly. It should be a bit sweet fr the onions. Perfect to eat with rice, curry or just with a slice of toasted Belgian beard. Good luck
That sounds a little like Palak Paneer, a very good Indian dish. All you need to add is some little cubes of Paneer.
I will try to find what Palak Panner is Selah. Thanks for the info.
hi Miriam
well done this is good-
you can add kashata, visheti, vitumbua, mkate wa kumimina, kinsamvu dagaa wa mawese mtori, muhogo fried and boiled ,caramelized mtama ( rolled in a ball – you get in dodoma) buyu – the colored sugar coated seeds, there are so many tz foods you have not included..lol
do let me know if need be.
sameera
Thanks Sameera,
Slowly I will add all those.
Tafadahli, tafadahli, tafadahli, “Wali na Maini”

Hi Mirium!
Will you please make a recipe for CHAPATI MAJI? I know the basics but for some reason mine come out more like Crepes and not Chapati Maji, they’re too thin and seem to be missing something…
Thank You!!!
Ohh and Merry Christmas to you!
Merry Christmas to you too Fransiska
Mingi love
Fransiska,
I will add that in the list from my visitors,
Thanks, welcome again.

I like the use of video to instruct, but for those of us in Tanzania and other African countries, it would be good to have the traditional text as well. We pay for the internet by the byte – and we pay a lot – so I’m not ready to watch almost ten minutes for just one video.
Just a thought. As always, it’s still a top site.
I will give that a great thought Peter. It is not easy, people asked for video for a long time, now a few want text again.
I will start to post both, all I want is my viewers to be happy.
Thanks again and visit again
Mingi love
thanks. but it’s good. Keep innovating.
Would you happen to have a recipe on sambusa? I can’t get enought of this food!
Yes I do have Sambusa recipe. I had it on my old blog, but I never had a chance to upload it here. I will upload it in a few weeks.
Love the beans in TZ. Recipe please. Also, how would you bests prepare rice for beans and rice. Thank you.
How exciting to have found your website. Each summer my children and I pick a country to learn about and we chose Tanzania this year. In addition to learning about the people, animals and land, we like to prepare a traditional meal. I am excited to try your recipes soon!
Hey, what a fantastic site. It is great to have a place with Tanzanian recipes, so that I can make the food when I leave Africa.
Just wondering weather it is possible to give us a recipe on ginger tea? I love that tea, but it’s not the same when you buy it in the shops or markets.
Thank you
You are right Ayla,
Nice to know someone likes ginger tea as I do. Healthy and caffeine free.
I have that recipe here. Its is just a few lines. I think i have a photo too. Let me see then i can post it.
Mingi Love
Miriam, hongera sana! I saw your web site on Michuzi and checked it out. I love what you are doing . It is so important for us Tanzanians to be brand ambassadors for our country where ever we are . Please just correct the spelling tourist on your home page .

I had vitumbua but I took it out after changing blog name last year. will upload the recipe again. Thanks for the reminder.
seconded: I was just looking for the vitumbua recipe now….
I agree. I am an American woman and my husband would be so happy if I can learn to make more of his favorite foods and vitumbua is one of them.
Kindly let me have a recipe on how to make mabuyu seeds & also how to make vitumbuas using ordinary pan since i do not have appam pan.
Ruth,
I will explain that when i upload the Vitumbua recipe.
I really appreciate this website was looking for some mabuyu recipe.I love swahili dishes so much kindly let me have bread & cake recipes.
I do have a very simple cake recipe fit for those who do not like baking cakes like myself. I will post it when i have time.
