Maguru Nematumbu (Beef Tripe and Intestines)

 

Ingredients

1 lb Beef Tripe and Intestines

1 tablespoon olive oil

1 chopped onion

1/2 red bell pepper

1/2 green pepper

1 cup crushed tomatoes

1 teaspoon red pepper flakes

salt and pepper to taste

TIP - It’s important that you wash your maguru THOROUGHLY in warm water and trim off any excess fat so that in the end you will not have any fat emulsifying (kugwamba) both in the pot or in your plate when eating. This could be an annoying thing for some including myself.

Instructions

Boil the tripe and intestines in water until tender. This may take anywhere from 2 – 4 hours. Remove from saucepan and set aside.

Add oil to the sauce pan and add onion. Saute for about 1 minute and then add peppers. Add tomatoes and pepper flakes. Season with salt and pepper to taste. Simmer for about 5 minutes and add back the tripe and intestines. Cook on low for about 10 minutes.

Serve hot with sadza or rice and vegetables.

HAPPY COOKING!!!
