Ugali sukuma is a very famous local dish in East Africa(Kenya,Tanzania,Uganda), you will find this dish in a lot of house holds in those countries also in both small and big restaurants. It is a mix of Ugali with collard greens known as sukuma wiki. Ugali is stiff porridge can be with maize or cassava flour found all over Africa just different names e.g in West Africa they call it fufu and Sukuma wiki is a swahili word shortened sukuma by a lot of people is a collard green vegetable which can be eaten with a lot of dishes when well prepared. I personally have eaten this dish my whole life as I am from Tanzania and I can say it is worth a try. The dish is best eaten bare hands as Ugali is a stiff porridge which makes the food more delicious with bare hands and licking the sukuma with your fingers.
