In Kenya Mutura is a traditional dish among Central Kenyans, though today is popular amongst all. It is made with meat, blood, spices wrapped in the intestines or animal's belly. In Kenya, fillers include fresh chopped goats or beef, fat, and onions.
Goats that are slaughtered, cattle or sheep have blood collected for use in the stuffing, although today many types of mutura, especially commercial ones sold on the streets do not contain blood. Meat for filling can be a fleshy part, but like other sausages, the main pieces are usually not used for stuffing. Conversely the harder and slimmer pieces such as the neck are trimmed from the bone. The casing for stuffing is a stomach and colon sack. It was watered many times with water to clean it.
Meat for finely chopped or chopped stuffing, and compulsory fat is often pruned from other parts. The flesh is slightly fried, mixed with finely chopped onion, salt and chilli option. Other extras include fresh chopped coriander (dhania or cilantro), garlic, pepper and even beef broth. These are then mixed thoroughly with fresh blood from the animal, and fed into the stomach and intestine, with openings sewn or tied with rope.
Sausage is boiled in a large pot (often with other parts of the animal not baked and used to make the soup) for 30-45 minutes, and baked on a coals until brown. Sliced, served with kachumbari, an onion-based salad consisting of tomatoes, red onions and fresh cilantro, a bit of chilli and lemon juice. The accompanying starch is ugali.
