The mushy, yellow mash which makes Matoke, is a staple of the Ugandan diet. Made from plantain, the 'green bananas' are peeled, wrapped in large leaves& then steamed outdoors over charcoal. It is a common sight to see discarded plantain peels all over the streets of Kampala.Matoke is usually served with ground-nut sauce, rice, potatoes& all manner of other yellow, carb-laden foodstuffs. Never invite a Ugandan over for dinner unless you intend to make it...
