Butternut squash is often more accessible and budget-friendly.

Peel and clean the nduma, then cut into medium-sized pieces.

Heat oil in a saucepan and add chopped onions; sauté until translucent.

Add crushed garlic and sauté until fragrant, being careful not to burn it.

Add chopped tomatoes and pilipi pili; cover and cook until tomatoes are soft.

Add salt to help tomatoes soften faster, then mix well.

Incorporate turmeric and black pepper into the mixture and stir to combine.

Add the nduma to the saucepan, mixing well with the spices.

Pour in enough water to cover the nduma and stir to combine.

Cover the saucepan and let it simmer on low-medium heat until the nduma is fork-tender.

Gently flip the nduma with a spatula to ensure even cooking and prevent sticking.

Once the nduma is ready, garnish with coriander and serve.
