We did it! We prepared lunch the African way. We couldn´t find the lady with the pumpkin leaves so there was no chibwabwa on the table. But instead cabbage saved us and worked out as relish. I guess I could leave out that it took about 4 hours, but here is not the right place to take undeserved cred.

Behind the scenes: Elizabeth was a star and helped us every time we felt lost. I was also taught that not preparing the nshima correct is a valid reason for the man to ask for divorce. No wonder the ladies are so skilled preparing this heavy maize.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Annely offers a helping hand as there was not enough cooking plates.
