Tripe (Malusu/Muhori)
In Xitsonga, we call this 'Malusu/Muhori'. It's a beloved South African dish cooked in stock with onions, some garlic, and chili if you like. Traditionally, it's served with Pap, but today I opted for steamed bread. What do you call this in your language, and what do you serve it...
