About Amashaza n'Ibihaza

Amashaza n’Ibihaza is peas with pumpkin, presented by chef Eric Kanyemera in Uruhimbi’s Rwandan community-food chapter. This version combines the vegetables in a serving bowl.

Pumpkin and peas bring a gentle sweetness, with salt and vegetable stock providing savoury seasoning. The stock’s exact vegetable and seasoning formula is not given.

The pumpkin pieces remain intact and tender, rather than becoming a mash. Soft peas sit among the chunks, and the dish is served hot as a side or light main course.
