Favorite Malawian Fried White Ants recipe by Anjimile Mtila Oponyo

This is usually served as an ndiwo, but can be eaten as a snack. Many volunteers compare it to popcorn.

  • Clean ants by removing wings and any foreign matter.
  • Place insects in salted water and boil over high heat until water has evaporated.
