Ugandan Matoke (Spicy Green Banana Mash) By Sanjana
The word Matoke is originally from the Ugandans of the Lake Victoria region. It refers to the cooked green bananas. This plantain grows in Uganda, Rwanda, Tanzania, Kenya among others. Apparently, Uganda is the second-largest producer of bananas after India and you can bet that Ugandans eat about a kg of banana per day. This makes it a staple food.
