One of the things you can find on every street vendor in Kampala is a Rolex. But not the kind you are thinking of. A Ugandan Rolex is an egg burrito inside a chapati. In fact, if you just drive down most any street in Kampala you will likely have rolexes brought to your car. The first time I had one of these was this hilarious story of trying one of the "not previously American approved restaurants" which turned out so fun and no one got sick. Ironically we all got sick from one of the Amer Approved restaurants lol. The owner was so excited to have Americans visit and did this whole welcoming thing - it was one of our favorite stories where we met the sweetest people. Anyhow - since most of his menu (not that there was a menu) was fish and meat, he offered to go buy us girls some rolex. Anyhow... I like to make it on occasion for my boy. Here you go!
- 1 eggs
- 1 thin chapati (or tortilla if you dont have any)
- salt and pepper
- handful of shredded cabbage
- sliced tomato
- cooking oil
- Mix egg and salt and pepper
- Pour egg mix into pan and fry it up on both sides
- Place egg round into chapati and throw back in pan
- Remove from pan and place a row of tomato and cabbage down the center
- Sprinkle more salt and pepper and other desired spices down the row
- Fold over one side and roll up the rest
- Enjoy!
