I went to high school in Tanzania and learned how to make it from my friends'. Fufu, ugali, posho, mealie-meal, nsima; the name changes with region and language, but is usually translated as 'porridge'. Which isn't very accurate - proper ugali or fufu is more stodge than soup, something with a texture close to window putty. It's very hard to describe without sounding rude. Fry the chicken pieces with chopped onion and a tablespoon of gravy browning.
