CEREALS (Githeri)
This is one of the easiest meals to prepare, you can call it githeri or in lay mans language gut. I remember how in my high school days its was the meal of the day a staple dish and we used to call it kawa... Meaning kawaida/regular or kokoto to mean ballast which was taken during lunch and dinner time... It had a lot of weevils and the maize was so hard that during boiling the legumes the maize would burst out of its shell for lack of better words true to its word its was full of nutrients because that's how I grew to be the woman that I am today ...
