Cooking Instructions
- 1
Remove the stalks from your mboga and cut to desired size. Place in a sufuria and boil for 20-30min until tender, then drain off water.
- 2
In another sufuria, heat oil and add onions then cook until tender and translucent.
- 3
Add your onions and salt (I also like to add a bit of black pepper coz it's magic 😁) then cover until tomatoes soften.
- 4
Now add your greens and mix well. Lower heat and let them incorporate the onion/tomato mixture for 5min.
- 5
Add your cream/milk at this point and mix well, then cover and cook for about 10min. I usually buy my milk from someone who keeps cows so the cream from boiling it comes in handy 😉
- 6
Remove from heat and serve with ugali or as a side dish. At this point my kids started throwing tantrums so I forgot to take photos of the finished product haha. I'll update you guys next time. Enjoy!!!

Heidi's Omelette Egg and Ham Cups Heidi's Omelette Egg and Ham Cups
I made the recipe for the normal egg and ham cups and found it too bland for my liking so I came up with this version which is packed full of flavour and nutrients. I don't know what ever possessed me to cook my eggs with cinnamon years ago, but I've never looked back. Adds a gorgeous undertone
