SPINACH AND SIMSIM

 

Sesame seeds - called simsim in Swahili - add an unusual nutty flavor to

vegetable stews. This particular recipe is from Uganda.

 

½ cup sesame seeds

3 or 4 tablespoons water

1 10-ounce package frozen chopped spinach, thawed

1 tablespoon butter

 

In a heavy stewing pan, combine sesame seeds and water. Stir in spinach. Add

more water if necessary; the amount of water used depends on how wet the

spinach is. This mixture should cook in smallest amount of water possible.

Bring to a boil. Simmer until seeds are cooked, 10 to 15 minutes.

Add butter just before serving, with a starch.

 

Serves 4.
