Nshima with River Fish Stew

A local staple pairing 'nshima'—a firm dough kneaded from white maize meal that is Zambia's staple food—with a stew of river fish caught in the Luapula. You shape the nshima by hand and dip it into the fish braising liquid simmered with tomato and leafy greens. The savour of freshwater fish harmonises with the gentle taste of the staple, a home-style dish in which the region's life and the river's bounty are concentrated on one plate.
