What is a "sambusa"? These savory triangles are stuffed with traditional fillings made from scratch from the freshest meat, peas, minced vegetables, spices, and no additives or preservatives, exactly the way we make them at home. Then we deep-fry them to golden crispy perfection. In East African cuisine, we aim for delicate flavors that bring out the freshness of each ingredient. We have ground beef (mild and spicy, and two vegetarian / vegan flavors (pea and rice). Each sambusa is handmade according to traditional recipes with love for you --- right here in South Bend!
