Ingredients:
300g omena
Vegetable oil
1 large onion, sliced
2 large tomatoes, sliced
3 cloves garlic, minced
2 cups sour milk
Salt and black pepper to taste
Directions:
Select the omena to remove loose scales and dirt. Put the omena in a bowl and pour hot boiling water over it. Cover it with a dish cloth and let it sit until the water has cooled. Once cooled, strain the omena and put it in a cooking pot. Place over medium heat and let cook until the water has dried out.
Pour into a pan, cook for 2-3 minutes then add onions and garlic and let cook for five minutes. Add the tomatoes, salt and pepper and cook for about 1-2 minutes then finally add the sour milk. Reduce heat to low and allow to cook until the omena is cooked.
Serve with ugali and green vegetables
NOTE: You can add more sour milk so as to have some gravy.
