Mukimo or Irio is a Kenyan meal prepared by mashing potatoes and green vegetables. I like to serve it with beef stew, nyama choma, chicken stew or fried cabbage.

I love good food, well cooked, but I hardly cook since I live alone. But on rare occasions when I feel a craving, I do a great meal. Today I craved mukimo ya ndengu. I just love how it tastes. Unlike peas which somehow adds some sweetener, Ndengu has a divine taste if, you get good quality and is well cooked. I used githeri that I had in my fridge. Try this out. It's delicious.
