How to cook the dry-fried cow tongue

Cow tongue is an acquired taste for many. This is a meal I look forward to every time I go to the village. My mother boils it in a pot over a ‘jiko ya makaa’ (charcoal stove). You can grill it or fry it after boiling it. I find frying easier and faster, unless I have guests, and have the grill out and fired up. You can give it some color and flavour by adding green and colored peppers as well as dhania (cilantro).
