coconut milk

🥗Healthier: light coconut milk

💰Cheaper: milk + coconut extract

Light coconut milk reduces calories while maintaining flavor.

fish

🥗Healthier: tofu

💰Cheaper: canned fish

Tofu provides a plant-based option while canned fish is budget-friendly.

Boil water in a large pot until bubbling.

Gradually add ugali flour, stirring continuously to avoid lumps.

Cook until the mixture thickens and pulls away from the sides of the pot, about 10-15 minutes.

In a separate pan, heat oil over medium heat and sauté chopped onions until translucent.

Add minced garlic and ginger, cooking until fragrant, about 1-2 minutes.

Stir in chopped tomatoes and green chili, cooking until softened.

Add fish fillets to the pan, cooking until opaque and flaky, about 5-7 minutes.

Pour in coconut milk, stirring gently to combine, and simmer for 5 minutes.

Season with salt, black pepper, and lime juice to taste.

Remove from heat and garnish with chopped coriander.

Serve ugali hot alongside the fish and coconut sauce, wrapped in banana leaves if desired.
