Hardy, dark-green collard-like leaves with broad blades and sturdy stems, thriving in gardens across Uganda. Name meaning “stretch the week”, affordable, prolific, and wonderfully nourishing. When quickly sautéed with onion, tomato, and a touch of oil, it becomes tender yet satisfyingly toothsome with a gentle, earthy sweetness. Brimming with vitamins A, C, and K, calcium, iron, and fibre, the beloved, budget-friendly green that pairs perfectly with posho, ugali, matooke, or rice, helping every household make meals go further without sacrificing nutrition or taste.
