It is both a royal dish and a fairly common dish cooked especially during the holidays. It was originally created in 1887 by the personal chef of Kabaka Mwanga, an interesting king who ruled the kingdom of Buganda (Uganda region where the country got its name from) at the end of the nineteenth century. Kabaka Mwanga had 16 women and 10 children. African cuisine seems to be a powerful aphrodisiac! Uganda is a country in East Africa. It was a British colony until 1962, when it became independent. Since its independence, the country has experienced political instability. We remember Idi Amin Dada, the emblematic figure of this country in the 70s. His dictatorial and bloody regime has claimed the lives of over 300,000 people from 1971 to 1979. His term was also marked by the famous Air France flight departing from Tel Aviv that was hijacked landed at Entebbe. The Entebbe raid (also known as Operation Thunderbolt) conducted by Israeli military forces led to the release of the hostages, despite the unfortunate death of three of them, in addition to the death of Colonel Jonathan Netanyahu, the eldest brother of the future Israeli prime minister Benjamin Netanyahu. Several films have portrayed the life of Idi Amin Dada, as well as the rescue operation that marked the ’70s including “Victory at Entebbe” starring illustrious actors like Anthony Hopkins, Burt Lancaster, Elizabeth Taylor and Richard Dreyfuss, but also “Raid on Entebbe” with Charles Bronson or the more recent “The Last King of Scotland” with the great Forest Whitaker in the role of Amin Dada.
