Prepare the Tripe: If your tripe is not pre-cleaned, wash it thoroughly under cold running water multiple times. Scrape away any impurities. Cut the cleaned tripe into approximately 2-3 cm pieces. Set aside.
โฑ๏ธ 30 minutes - 2
Initial Boil: Place the cut tripe in a large, heavy-bottomed pot. Add enough cold water to generously cover the tripe. Bring to a rolling boil over high heat. Once boiling, reduce the heat to low, cover, and simmer gently for 3 to 4 hours, or until the tripe is very tender. Skim off any foam or impurities that rise to the surface during the first hour of cooking. The tripe should be yielding when pierced with a fork.
โฑ๏ธ 3-4 hours - 3
Sautรฉ Aromatics: While the tripe is simmering, heat the vegetable oil in a separate pan over medium heat (around 180ยฐC / 350ยฐF). Add the chopped onions and sautรฉ until softened and translucent, about 5-7 minutes. If using garlic, add it in the last minute of sautรฉing until fragrant. Stir in the curry powder and cook for another minute until fragrant, being careful not to burn it.
โฑ๏ธ 10 minutes - 4
Combine and Simmer: Once the tripe is tender, drain off most of the cooking liquid, leaving about 1-2 cups in the pot. Add the sautรฉed onion and curry mixture, the blended tomatoes, cubed potatoes, bay leaves (if using), salt, and pepper to the pot with the tripe. Stir well to combine. Add the beef or vegetable stock, ensuring the ingredients are mostly submerged. Bring the stew back to a gentle simmer.
โฑ๏ธ 5 minutes - 5
Thicken the Sauce: Cover the pot and continue to simmer over low heat for another 45 minutes to 1 hour, or until the potatoes are tender and the sauce has thickened to your desired consistency. Stir occasionally to prevent sticking. If the sauce becomes too thick, add a little more stock or water. Taste and adjust seasoning with salt and pepper as needed.
โฑ๏ธ 45-60 minutes - 6
Serve: Remove the bay leaves before serving. Ladle the hot Mogodu into bowls. It is traditionally served with pap (maize porridge) or a side of crusty bread.

- โThorough cleaning of the tripe is paramount for a pleasant flavor and texture.
- โThe long, slow cooking process is essential to break down the connective tissues in the tripe, making it incredibly tender.
- โDon't rush the simmering stage; it allows the flavors to meld beautifully.
- โAdjust the amount of curry powder and add chili if you prefer a spicier stew.
