Muboora | Traditional Stew From Zimbabwe | TasteAtlas

Muboora

Muboora is a traditional African dish hailing from Zimbabwe. It's made with a combination of pumpkin leaves, oil, tomatoes, onions, salt, and soda bicarbonate. The pumpkin leaves need to be washed carefully as they're usually full of soil. They are simmered in a pot filled with boiling water and all the other ingredients until the onions and tomatoes are fully cooked.


Once done, muboora is typically served as it is or with sadza (pap) and a relish on the side. Optionally, cream can be added to the dish, and there is also a version called muboora une dovi that's made with the addition of peanut butter.
