Tasty matoke recipe | Kenyan cuisine | African Dishes

Lets cook a very simple and tasty recipe from Africa. We cook green unripe bananas (matoke) together with potatoes and boiled beef. Matoke is a variety of banana from a family of bananas known as East African Highland bananas. Matoke is sometimes referred to as plantains. Make sure to place the bananas in salted water immediately after peeling to avoid discoloration. Hope you will enjoy.
Ingredients:
Beef
Potatoes
Green bananas
Tomatoes
Coriander
Onions
Cooking oil
Chilly beef cube
Curry powder
Salt
