This was such an interesting video to watch. How beautiful and diverse the African life is. The food from different regions hits different. No wonder Africans have a strong immune system and lots of energy. Thanks to that beautiful sister for sharing her home food with us.
TH-cam was the best innovative tool that was invented, it has helped anybody anywhere in the world to be able to show the world their way of life, show their various foods, the different races, ethnic groups etc something the large media houses can never do. It is wonderful to see.
I'm from Fiji in the South Pacific, we eat something similar using cassava leaves. We pick the soft leaves then it is boiled and rinsed in cold water then squeezed so majority of water come out. Then it is chopped very finely and this is boiled with very rich[strong] coconut milk. Salt and onion is also added. We also add sea foods like fish, shellfish, crabmeat or prawns but with all the bones and shells removed and chopped finely too like the cassava leaves. This is eaten with boiled cassava root, taro or banana. But I love how you cooked yours. We also eat a lot of smoked fish and it is usually cooked in strong coconut milk with taro leaves. I wonder is you eat taro leaves like we do.
Ooooh my dear....I read your comment as I imagining how yours is prepared....thanks for the explanations...am so greatful....and thank you for joining our family....
🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣 mukama....you are right....when the food is well cooked and so delicious.....i even lick my fingers.......and it's our signature move......🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
EdithWivine fufu is a West African word. In Zambia where I am from we call it ubwali(bemba language) nshima, nsima(nyanja, senga or tumbuka language) what do the Congolese call it??.
Well sombe is good and btw it can be cooked in different ways but am sure the results are always the same.... but it tastes better for me when it's taken with cassava flour and then the sombe has the cow leg...💃💃💃....thank you for the vid though
Thanks for the video. You know I have been seeing all the ingredients the cassava leaves ,palm oil in small bottles at container village and kept wondering how they are prepared. Great work.
Even the dried fish I kept wondering how they are prepared but now I know. That area around container village there are many Congoleses dealing in bitengyi so perhaps that's why all this is sold there.
Happy Tours Africa is following you from UGANDA 🇺🇬🇺🇬🇺🇬 Enjoy sombe the cassava leaves. Greetings from UGANDA 🇺🇬🇺🇬🇺🇬🇺🇬🇺🇬🇺🇬🇺🇬🇺🇬🇺🇬🇺🇬🇺🇬🇺🇬🇺🇬🇺🇬🇺🇬🇺🇬🇺🇬🇺🇬🇺🇬🇺🇬🇺🇬🇺🇬
It's just so sad that baganda grow alot of cassava and then some complain mbu "twalidde maluma". The cassava plant is such a beneficial family crop. It gives you food, medicine and its leaves are vegetables
Even fire wood.........but now people are getting into the real sense.....they eat anything now.....yes our foods are medicine, I wish people can understand that...
Cassava leaves are a great delicacy. You may prepare and insert Gnut or Sesame (simsim) paste. You may insert smoked fish, beef or chicken. All is so good. For me i crush the leaves by pounding in a motar using a pestle. Insert in a sauce pan, cover saucebpan and place on fire to steam. Slice or grate tomatoes in a separate saucepan. Insert onions, ginger, garlic carrots and green peppers in the motar containing the cassava leaves and pound together to crush. Simmer or use little heat so it doesn't burn all this while the saucepan is covered. Do not forget salt. You may insert bi carbonate of soda or magadi to soften the cassava leaves. After an hour you can enjoy serve the cassave sauce with Ugali, cassava, rice matooke, potatoes or chapati.
Your culture is beautiful! The food, music, people…Can you please give the name of the song that’s playing in this video, thank you and God Bless.🙏🏻🤗❤️
I love everything about the video... what threw me off was the comment and conversation about North Uganda... that was so uncalled for... there is a saying, if you have nothing nice to say, do not say it at all. I'm from Northern Uganda and I've never heard of what you were talking about, that was such an insult!!!
Am so sorry my dear, we always here people talking about that and I thought it was right..but I'll make it right when I get them.... Please forgive me..
This was Congolese recipe...its different from others.....when I was in Busoga...they did another recipe......but procedures are almost the same........

This dish is also common in Sierra Leone and Liberia but cooked slightly differently. Now I know to stem the leaves first so it is easier to pound.
Yes yes..thanks for sharing with us....please try it and tell us the results.

This food looks yummy yummy 😋 con you come and cook with me when I come in Uganda,
I come from Gulu.
Yes yes....I'll come
I love sombe but my stomach cannot take the palm oil. I'm sure sweet potatoes would go well with Sombe.
Ooooh my dear...sorry for that....you can add our cooking oil...instead of Palm oil..
You can also replace with coconut milk
Yes, you are right about sweet potatoes
Have never tasted a dish with Coconut milk...
I agree sweet potatoes can go well with it
We have cassava leaves in West Africa too.
