We all have eaten githeri at one point of our lives and we either hated it or loved it. Mostly it was made plain and almost every other day while we were in boarding schools. Am here to show you how you can rescue this meal to be enjoyed by a toddler who is still growing teeth and even that old grand ma or grand pa who has been loosing teeth.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

All you need is just a few ingredients and switching the maize with some sweet corn.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Start by heating up some cooking oil in a cooking pot (sufuria) and add the diced onions. Let them cook on medium-high heat until the onions are translucent. Add in the coriander (dania) stems at this point and allow them to cook till fragrant. Follow by adding in the maggi cubes and your afya mchuzi mix. Allow to cook for a minute.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Add in the green capsicums (hohos). Mix well and allow to cook for about another minute.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Add in the pureed tomatoes. Mix well, cover and allow to cook for about 3 minutes.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Uncover to add in the potatoes, then allow this to simmer (while covered) for a few minutes till the potatoes have softened and fork tender. (Incase they are sticking on the bottom of the pan, you can add a dash of water to prevent it).<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Thereafter, add the boiled beans and sweet corn to the potatoes and mix them in. Add the water and mix in. Turn down the heat and let this simmer for 8-12 minutes while covered.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Finally season with black pepper & sea salt then add in your grated carrots and chopped up fresh coriander (dania). Mix them in. Turn off the heat and serve.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
