Here are Three Tanzania Foods Not To Miss
-
Nyama Choma
Aside from ugali, nyama choma is another culinary treasure in Tanzania. Nyama choma is Swahili for roasted or grilled meat, and it’s a simple plate offering that covers all your nutritional bases: barbequed beef or goat skewered and served with a side of vegetable.
-
Pilau
Simple but elegant and filling, pilau is seasoned rice. Tanzania and its Zanzibar archipelago are famous for their historical spice trade, so you will find this Middle Eastern influenced rice dish everywhere. So. Good.
-
Ndizi Kaanga
These are fried plantains or bananas, a very common and popular dish in East African and, more specifically, Tanzania. This is often served as a snack or as a side to a main course as something to push around with sauce or on their own.
