Today we decided to go back to the traditional way of living, in our lunch hour, we decided to prepare the common food tradition in our community.
although I am in Kenya it is believed that the food is most common in Uganda
the food is actually called "matoke" {cooked unripe bananas}
The preparation is quite simple, just pealing the banana , boil it and add all your spices to the boiling bananas
it tastes quite old but very nice, my family members enjoyed it

We all also cook a type of banana. We call it kardaba if I am not mistaken. Would you add a picture of the look of that banana that you cooked. By the way, I like the feel of your story. It reminds me of the life back in the country in our farm when I was young.
