If you pass by Oysterbay Beach in Dar Es Salaam on a Saturday or Sunday evening, you'll be amazed not only by the number people that flock here, but also the variety of street food that is available. I assure you, you'll never find similar street food with such a cultural mix sold any where in the world. One of my favorites is the Kitale. I don't know who though of this perfect combo, but i'm simply hooked!
How It's Made -
• Kitale (Baby coconut) - The shell is very soft so you can bite into it
• Boiled Potatoes - spiced with a bit of red chilly power and salt
• Chutney - Made from coconut, fresh chillies (pili pili mbuzi), its an extremely hot chilly, salt and red chilly power.
You start with drinking the coconut water (if you want to). When the shell is empty, layers of the potatoes and chutney are poured in and voila - you have your delish kitale!
