What is Luwombo?
Luwombo is a traditional Ugandan dish that showcases the country's vibrant culinary heritage. It is a slow-cooked stew, usually prepared with various meats such as chicken, goat, or beef. The unique aspect of Luwombo lies in its preparation method, which involves marinating the meat in a flavorful blend of local spices, wrapping it in banana leaves, and then steaming or baking it until it's tender and infused with rich flavors.
