Ndizi Nyama
Green Banana and Beef Stew
Ndizi Nyama, which translates to 'bananas and meat' in Swahili, is a hearty and flavorful Tanzanian stew.

👨🍳 Інструкції
- 1
In a pot, combine beef, minced garlic, minced ginger, salt, and black pepper. Add 1 cup of water or broth. Bring to a boil, then reduce heat, cover, and simmer for 45 minutes to 1 hour, or until the beef is tender.
- 2
While the beef is simmering, peel the green bananas and cut them into quarters or thick slices. If not using immediately, keep them submerged in water to prevent browning.

In a separate pan, heat the cooking oil over medium heat. Add the sliced onion and sauté until softened and translucent, about 5-7 minutes.
- 4
Add the chopped tomatoes and tomato paste to the onions. Cook for about 5 minutes, stirring occasionally, until the tomatoes soften and break down.
- 5
Add the curry powder and cayenne pepper (if using) to the tomato-onion mixture and stir for 1 minute until fragrant.
- 6
Drain the green bananas and add them to the pot with the tender beef. Add the remaining 1 cup of water or broth and the tomato-onion-spice mixture. Stir to combine.
- 7
Bring the stew back to a simmer, then reduce heat, cover, and cook for another 20-25 minutes, or until the bananas are tender but still hold their shape.
- 8
Pour in the coconut milk and stir gently. Simmer for another 10-15 minutes, uncovered, allowing the sauce to thicken slightly. Adjust salt to taste.

Serve hot, traditionally with ugali or rice.
