Kachumbari is a fresh condiment similar to Pico de gallo, consisting of chopped tomatoes, onions, and chili peppers. Other ingredients may also be added, such as lime and or lemon juice, fresh cilantro, coriander (Dhania) and or parsley, avocado or cucumber, and in some cases Gin or Vodka. It's a favorite of most Kenyan lovers of nyama choma (BBQ Beef, veal, sheep, lamb, goat etc). For recipe variations try Naga Jolokia peppers or Habanero chili peppers and or Scotch Bonnet peppers with a touch of ground Cayenne Pepper.
