In most of our celebrations in Botswana we are always looking forward to eating pounded meat.Pounded meat with porridge is my all time favorite. The meat has its own unique aroma and very delicious. Have you ever tasted Pounded Meat ?

@kearabilwe It is. And of course, it depends a lot on the spices you add to it.

No, I never had it or heard of it until now. Your meal looks delicious. Are those mashed potatoes?

@kearabilwe It looks and sounds wonderful! I've only been to Egypt, but hope to return to Africa when the virus is over.

DianneN Pounded meat is very popular in many African countries,these are not mashed potatoes, we call it Papa, it is a maize meal, it is basically maize made into powder through pounding machinery, It is cooked with boiled water and left to cook until the mixture is well cooked.
