Kenyan Recipes

Kenyan cuisine is a dynamic melting pot of over 40 ethnic groups' culinary traditions, augmented by Indian, Arab, and British colonial influences. Ugali (firm maize porridge) served with sukuma wiki (braised collard greens) and nyama choma (grilled meat) forms the national culinary trinity. The cuisine varies dramatically from the coastal Swahili seafood and spiced pilafs to highland stews and Maasai pastoral foods. Kenyan chai (milky spiced tea) is a daily essential, while Nairobi's buzzing food scene embraces everything from street-side mutura (blood sausage) to fusion restaurants.
