A current jikoni fave from scratch: MATOKE PAKA😍

Matoke [Ma-to-keh] AKA East African plantain is a staple cooking banana common in East African countries. The bananas are harvested while still green and are either steamed, mashed or fried 💚. It has a starchy potato like flavour and can be accompanied by most dishes.😋

At Jikoni, we tastefully pan fry it in a tangy coconut curry sauce with a side of Somali style fragrant rice.🤤🥰

Embrace the vibrant East African flavours every Tuesday-Friday from 10am-3pm! Don’t miss out🤩
