Savor the rich flavors of Kenyan Mutura, a delightful blend of spiced goat intestines and minced beef, perfect for a weekend gathering or a festive occasion. Enjoy this unique dish grilled to perfection, bringing warmth to your table.

Ingredients

  • 1 kg goat intestines
  • 500 g minced beef
  • 2 tablespoons kikuyu spice mix
  • 1 cup onions
  • 2 cloves garlic
  • 1 tablespoon salt
  • 1 tablespoon black pepper
  • 1 cup water

Method

  1. 1

    Begin by thoroughly cleaning the goat intestines. Rinse them under running water and then soak in salted water for about 30 minutes.

  2. 2

    In a mixing bowl, combine the minced beef, kikuyu spice mix, onions, garlic, salt, and black pepper. Mix well until all ingredients are evenly combined.

  3. 3

    Stuff the cleaned intestines with the meat mixture, ensuring they are filled but not too tight to allow for expansion during cooking. Tie the ends securely with kitchen twine.

  4. 4

    In a large pot, bring the water to a boil and carefully place the stuffed intestines in the boiling water. Cover and cook for about 30-40 minutes.

  5. 5

    After boiling, remove the intestines from the pot and let them cool slightly. Preheat a grill or charcoal barbecue.

  6. 6

    Grill the stuffed intestines for about 10-15 minutes, turning occasionally, until they are well browned and cooked through.

  7. 7

    Once cooked, remove from the grill and let rest for a few minutes before slicing.

  8. 8

    Serve hot with your favorite side dishes, such as ugali or kachumbari.
