Malewa is smoked bamboo shoot which is dried for preservation. The bamboo trees grow in the wild in eastern Uganda around Mt. Elgon.
Malewa in preparation process
Malewa originated from Eastern Uganda in the Bugisu sub-region. It was original eaten as food and later it started to be cooked as a sauce when mixed with ground simsim (sesame seed) or peanuts. Malewa is a major part of ceremonies in Bugisu e.g. Nbalu (circumcision), traditional weddings.
