Umleqwa Recipe

Umleqwa

Ingredients

  • One whole chicken, plucked, cleaned and cut into six pieces
  • Water
  • Chicken stock cube
  • Olive oil
  • Onion (chopped)
  • Chopped tomatoes (2)
  • Tomato paste
  • Curry powder
  • Chopped garlic clove and green pepper
  • Salt and sugar

Method

Get a saucepan and add some water and then bring to a boil.

Cut the chicken into pieces and transfer everything into the boiling water.

Add the stock cube into what you have in your saucepan and allow it to cook for about 45 minutes or an hour. Alternatively, wait until you are sure that the chicken is cooked.

Place another saucepan on fire and fry your onions, garlic clove, and the green pepper. Also, add the tomatoes, curry powder, sugar, and tomato paste (about two tablespoons).

Add salt to taste and add the sauté to the already-cooked chicken.

Then, simmer for about 15-20 minutes.

Depending on your choice, you can enjoy your Umleqwa with steam bread, samp or even rice and veggies.
