What it is

Tender pieces of goat meat slow-cooked with fresh spinach (Mchicha) in a rich, savory stew base of sautéed onions, tomatoes, garlic, and ginger. A hearty and nutritious dish, naturally low in carbs and high in protein and healthy fats.

Key ingredients

Goat meat (bone-in or boneless), fresh spinach, red onions, tomatoes, garlic, ginger, green chilies, cooking oil, salt, black pepper.

If you order it anyway

Confirm no starchy thickeners are used in the stew. Ensure it is served without Ugali, rice, chapati, or other carb-heavy accompaniments.

Watch out for

Carbs from tomatoes and onions. Some natural carbs from spinach. Potential for hidden sugars in spice mixes.
