Ndiwo

Ndiwo is a simple Zambian dish made with various leafy green vegetables, onions, and, if desired, tomatoes. Cassava leaves, collard greens, pumpkin leaves, pea leaves, bean leaves, and various other types of wild greens are all options.

Though the dish may include various types of meat, it is primarily considered a vegetable-based dish. Ndiwo is almost always served with nsima (nshima), a thick Zambian cornmeal porridge, and the two are regarded as the most important staples of traditional Zambian cuisine.

This adaptable and versatile dish is known by many different names in the region, including dende, ndiyo, and umunani. If you intend to travel to Zambia, Ndiwo is one of the must-try dishes for you.
