Kenyans love tripe (matumbo) and mutura (stuffed innards). They are cheap, easily available. Prepared well, they are tasty. Mutura is a beloved delicacy sold by the roadside and mostly at night.
When the ‘month is at the corner’, Covid-ravaged Kenyans also prefer ordering matumbo with ugali and sukuma wiki. A plate goes for less than Sh100, depending on whether the eatery is East or West of Uhuru Highway in Nairobi.
Mutura goes for between Sh10 and Sh50, also depending on location. It is best eaten on slices atop a greasy piece of wood next to the wire mesh emanating billows of smoke.
