Managu

Blanched Managu (African Nightshade) is a highly nutritious leafy green that has been briefly boiled or steamed to soften its texture while preserving its rich green color and essential nutrients. It is packed with iron, calcium, fiber, and vitamins A and C, making it a healthy addition to various dishes. Blanching helps reduce its natural bitterness, making it more palatable and easier to cook. Blanched managu can be sautéed with onions and tomatoes, added to stews, or served as a side dish, often paired with traditional staples like ugali for a wholesome and flavorful meal.
