This Kenyan dish is quick and sooo easy to make – perfect if you're craving something a little more exotic with pretty common ingredients. Sukuma wiki is the Swahili name for collard greens which translates to "push/stretch the week". In East Africa they use collards to stretch out a meal so it lasts the whole week, so as you can imagine this dish is very economical.
I'm super excited to share this recipe from my friend Russ's new cookbook, The Ancestral Table: Traditional Recipes for a Paleo Lifestyle. His cookbook has tons of great International recipes each with a bit of history to go along for each dish as well as stunning photography.
Many of you asked me if I am now going Paleo, and the answer is no. But that doesn't mean I can't enjoy meals that are Paleo-friendly and his book has so many exotic dishes I plan on trying soon. I met Russ of the Domestic Man on a tour of the Culinary Institute in the Fall where we cooked side by side in one of their classrooms. We were both working on our first cookbooks, so while we shared our experience together a kitchen together, we also shared stories of food, writing and more. Hope you enjoy this dish!
