Best Zambian food

Answer 1

1.Zambia's native cuisine is a corn based meal locally known as Nshima also known as fufu.In Zimbabwe it is called sadza, in South Africa mealie-pap.It is easy to prepare, you just need a pan of boiling water to about 50 degrees Fahrenheit . Stir in the corn meal just when the water starts bubbling, after a stirring in a handful of the cornmeal, close the pan and let it simmer for about five minutes.Remove the lid,stir in more of the corn meal until you reach a desirable soft and mashed potatoes like texture,it may require a little skill to achieve it.

The same thing is done in Zimbabwe,it is made into a semi solid dough like before and it has the consistency of mashed potatoes and it is saved with beef stew, chicken, fish or any other meats.Most people eat it twice a day for lunch and supper.

Breakfast in Zambia is usually a hot cup of Tea with buttered bread rolls, scrambled eggs and corn meal porridge. Other cereals are also available.If you visit Zambia, try most of the Zambian sausages and cold meats, they are tasty and rarely have the bad salty preservatives that destroy an authentic taste.You better try the Hungarian sausage made in the Zambian style,Sausage Hot links and don't forget to try the meat pies and samosa for snacks. The tastiest fruit would probably be the Mango and is available in late December to February.
