Creamy Sigwamba(Creamy Spinach Pap)

 As Africans we have numerous ethnic groups and within each tribal group we still differ from each other. Those from the South might differ in language or cultural customs from the Northern although they are all from the same ethnic group. 

 Which brings me to today’s Recipe, which I originally got from my Granz but I put a little modern twist to it.

Originally in this recipe you boil the spinach/mfino but not today

Ingredients

2 Bunch of Spinach( finely chopped)

2 Cups of Maize Meal

1 Onion( finely chopped)

Garlic

1Table Spoon of Oil

Feta Cheese

Black Pepper

Salt

Method

·         Heat up the oil in a pot.

·         When the oil is hot add your onion

·         Add garlic to the  onion, keep string to prevent the onion and garlic from burning.

·         Add the finely chopped spinach, Black Pepper and Salt for seasoning. Close the pot lid and let the spinach cook through

·         Add Feta

·         Add a cup of maize meal and mix together (without removing the pot from the stove)and add more maize meal if need be

      Let it rest for a few minutes and stir again and repeat for 3/4 times until cooked
