Below are the kind of foods the East African Countries love to eat:
Ugali is a cooked dough made from maize, cassava, sorghum or millet that's a staple across East Africa
Fah-fah is a meat stew or soup made from goat (and sometimes mutton or camel)
Matoke is a specific type of banana that's grilled, boiled or mashed throughout Uganda and many other East African countries
This unique, polenta-like side dish is a Tanzanian favorite, traditionally served for breakfast, lunch and dinner. Made by rolling a tiny bit of creamy, thick cornmeal paste (made from cooked white maize) in a hand until it forms into a ball, and making an indentation in it with a thumb, ugali becomes an edible spoon that is often dipped into various stews and sauces

Matoke - Historically the traditional dishes of East Africa are similar to those of central Africa with a few small differences. Maize is the basis of ugali, a side dish usually to a hearty stew. Meanwhile plantain is often steamed to make matoke the filler of many meals served with their stews. East African cuisine has been hugely influenced by its history. When the Arabs settled on the Swahili coast over 1000 years ago they introduced different cooking methods and many new ingredients. This included spices like saffron, cloves and cinnamon which are all grown on Zanzibar’s islands. Later the Portuguese introduced different methods of roasting and marinating, and from their colonies, brought citrus fruits. They also introduced chilies, tomatoes, pineapple and the maize used to make ugali. When the British and the Indians came, they brought their own flavours like vegetable curries and chapattis.
