Coastal Cuisine: Ugali (sima)

By Mwanamisi Kasirani
Ugali is a staple food here in Kenya. It is regarded as a heavy meal due to the richness of carbohydrates in it. Ugali is mostly served during lunch to provide people with energy for the rest of the day. To some, Ugali serves as a heavy breakfast and supper. The coastal name for ugali is sima. Ugali can be served with any vegetable stew.

Ingredients
1 cup of water
2 cups of maize flour

Procedure
Boil water until it produces bubbles. Add flour gradually and stir. Cook the porridge until the form disappears.

Add the flour gradually and mix until the mixture softens. Smash to remove lumps. Remove from the heat.

Pour in a plate or hot pot and serve with fish stew.
