Why Matoke is the Ultimate Kenyan Breakfast

Matoke (also known as green banana stew) is a traditional delicacy enjoyed across East Africa. At Ronawi Hotel, we’ve perfected the art of preparing soft, well-cooked green bananas simmered in a rich tomato-based sauce with your choice of:

  • Beef
  • Chicken
  • Vegetables
  • Or as a vegan delight!

It’s filling, flavorful, and perfect for early mornings.

Served Fresh in the Heart of Bungoma

Located in central Bungoma, Ronawi Hotel serves freshly prepared Matoke daily from our clean and cozy kitchen. We understand the culture and cravings of our community — and nothing hits the spot like a plate of Matoke with a hot cup of tea or coffee.

Whether you’re coming from Kanduyi, Musikoma, Bukembe, or Chwele, we are easily accessible and always ready to serve you hot, home-style Matoke.

What’s in Our Matoke?

Our recipe is simple, authentic, and rooted in tradition. We use:

  • Unripe green bananas (Matoke)
  • Ripe tomatoes
  • Red onions
  • Garlic & ginger
  • Fresh coriander
  • Cooking oil
  • A touch of Royco or seasoning
  • Your choice of protein (beef, chicken, or plain)

Slow-cooked to perfection, our Matoke is tender and soaks up the rich flavors of the stew. The result? A dish that’s warming, delicious, and satisfying.

Variations You Can Choose From

  1. Plain Matoke (Vegan) – Perfect for those who love clean eating
  2. Matoke with Beef – For meat lovers looking for that extra kick
  3. Matoke with Chicken – Light, tasty, and high in protein
  4. Matoke & Veggies – A mix of carrots, peas, or spinach for balance

Every option is served with a cup of hot tea or coffee, giving you a full traditional Kenyan breakfast experience.


Pair It with a Hot Drink

Our Matoke breakfast is served with:

  • Kenyan black tea (with or without milk)
  • Strong African coffee (sugar or sugar-free)
  • Tangawizi (ginger tea)
  • Lemongrass or herbal tea (on request)

We use locally sourced tea leaves and coffee beans to give you that authentic Kenyan kick in the morning.
