The natives there called it Mahiz

I have never been to a restaurant and had my meal as fast as I ordered it. It always gets to me almost 30minutes after order. One has to order for a meal 1 hour earlier if you are sure not to loose a temper…remember an angry man is always a …..Yep...that’s right... a hungry one
I know sometimes we get so held up and fail to deliver our lunch to the hungry son and daughter that are soon to throw a tantrum or to the husband that has a meeting to get back to fast and can not concentrate on finalizing his report.
That is why we have starters ranging from Bajias to cucumbers to carrots and for me today am thinking Creamy Corn.

Boiled Vegetable Soup

Today is Saturday, the day for spring cleaning. With all that’s to be done, there is not enough time to make a full course meal so I am having a boiled vegetable soup and French Stick. I find that the Bread Basket at Nakumatt Oasis Mall in my city, Kampala has the softest and nicely baked French stick. But you can find it at any store nearest to you.
For my Boiled vegetable soup I will need the following ingredients:

  • I big table spoon of olive oil or vegetable oil
  • 2 large onions
  • 2 large red tomatoes or you can use tomato paste
  • I really large Irish potato
  • 2 long and think carrots
