OSHINGALI (BLACK-EYED PEAS) 

INGREDIENTS
cup fresh black-eyed peas
tsp salt
 chili pepper, crushed or 1/2 tsp cayenne pepper

Soak fresh peas in cold water for about 5 minutes to soften. Using both

should be skimmed off and discarded. 
Drain and rinse the peas, add salt and hot pepper, and cover with clean 
water. Boil until tender. Serve, along with the cooking water, over Oshifima 
or another stiff porridge. 
Serves 4.

Mopane Worms....!!!!!!


Bright and colourful mopane worms are collected  after the summer rains in Namibia, they dried and distributed around the country where they are sold at local markets.
They are first cooked with water and salt to rehydrate them and after fried with tomatoes and onions to create a  hearty  and  healthy  dish. The taste has been linked to that of a chicken and dried fish.
