Lele’s Famous Rice Story
In Burundi the most popular foods are rice and beef. Rice is the most popular food in many countries in Africa. Today mother always wants to cook traditional African foods, but we don't like to eat them that much. My mom or my sister cooks rice and beef some times. In my country, Burundi, these foods are expensive and most people only get them for special occasions like Christmas. People in Burundi or Tanzania feel like they are together when they eat rice and beef on one plate. We don't eat these foods on the same plate anymore because we have more people to eat with. To prepare for the meal we had to call everybody who is a family member to come join us in the meal. We got unprocessed food and we thought they were edible but they had lots of nutrition. I liked the way Tanzanian do when they are ready for meal, asked any person they know to join them and it made me feel like part of the family. I was better at calling people to join us and I was happy about sharing with others. Also my friends if they invite me to their meal I used to
help them settle up the table for the meal. We eat it almost every single day and it taste great with beef, tingles my tongue. I learned this recipe from my mom while she was cooking it. I chose this recipe because not many people know this recipe and I want them to know this recipe. People doesn’t know how yummy is Lele’s famous rice and I know people would like it
