Ox-tail Soup with Bananas in Karonga

Ox-tail Soup with Bananas in Karonga

A must-try when visiting Karonga is Ox-tail soup with bananas.

The ox-tail is cooked until tender and served with plantains, non-sweet bananas.

This is a popular dish in Tanzania, but as Karonga borders Tanzania at Songwe, Karonga has a mixture of Tanzanian culture.

Ox-tail soup is commonly eaten for breakfast in Karonga, and many stands for the soup can be found around Karonga’s market from early morning.

A squeeze of lemon or chilli enhances the taste of the soup and adds to the flavour.

This is a dish that can only be found here in Karonga and is definitely worth a try.
