My Matooke!
Matooke is a staple food for the Baganda, a tribe found mainly in Central Uganda. This steamed Plantain is also the backbone of many Agriculturalists in Central and Western Uganda.
There are many ways of preparing matooke but the most common way is to wrap it in fibre and leaves and then steam it. You can also slice this in tiny pieces and have tasty fries...
Tasty with beef,fish,Groundnuts and my fave..peas...:)
I have seen my brothers in Bukoba enjoying a meal with matooke too, making it an East African fave.
Tip; Matooke is a very delicate food. Treat her like a tender lady and voila! you'd nail it!
Wishing you peace and love,
Esi

My Africa...:)
Hey lovers of all things beautiful,
In a few weeks time, my Country (Uganda) is going for the big FIVE OH!!! Ho ho..and we are looking forward to grab Gold!
As we head towards the celebrations, I will introduce a few aspects of Ugandan Culture, the peoples, tribes and figures, who have made history and continue to create an impact in our lives. I aced History so this is a walk in the park...we should all enjoy. I will also throw in a pinch of that unstructured Esi art and about vibe on spontaneous aspects. I've coined the phrase "My Africa" just so that you can step into my world on this tour...

Bangeeeee....
So, lovers of all things beautiful.
A few weeks ago we(my pal and I) finally ticked one thing off our bucket list-Bungee Jumping!
Yes! This was quite ecstatic and fulfilling I wanted to do it again!
44Meters of adrenalin fun and then poooowwww into the Nile! Felt really cool after (I slept like a baby that night) but my neck hurt still (from before) so...well...was still worth it.
Now we looking forward to ticking off all those items on the bucket list and can't wait to go diving sometime this year. In the mean time,I am polishing my skills at a pool not far from home.
Cheers beautiful people-Go make your dreams come true :)
