Uganda is a country that hosts a wide range of cuisine for you to tantalise your taste buds with.
The entire country does not have a single staple food for you to try out, however, each region has its own common meal which is great as this diversifies the food in the country.
Street food is a common theme all around the country and the vendors offer very incredible foods at ridiculously cheap prices.
One thing to note, however, is that most of the foods in Uganda are full of starch as this is common and indigenous to the people.
Fish.
Because the country borders Lake Victoria, fish is a very common food to find in the towns close to the lake.
You can get fully fried Tilapia or it can also be roasted. These fish are sold on the streets or even in hotels.
Nile perch is also a good example of another species of fish easily found.
If you are a fan of white meat or freshwater fish then Uganda is a place you really should visit.
Matoke.
There are several variations of this dish however it mainly consists of Plantains of bananas.
In some areas, the plantain is fried and in others, the bananas can be stewed.
The beauty of this country is that the food is cheap and therefore you can try out as many recipes to find the one that suits your taste buds.
Matoke is a common meal as Uganda are gross producers of bananas and this makes it a readily available meal.
Some other meals that deserve a mention include Luwambo which is fish, meat or groundnut sauce steamed in banana leaves.
Luwombo is usually served with any other carbohydrates such as rice or Ugali.
To the north of the country, millet foods are mostly common while those in the west mostly major on Irish and sweet potatoes.
