Madora

 Madora | Macimbi (Mopane Worms)

The mopane is a worm considered a delicacy in Zimbabwe and other African countries. It is found in mopane trees that grow in the Matabeleland region and parts of the Midlands.

It is a green or black and whitish-stained worm with spikes on its body. The worm is squeezed clean of all its internal fluid so that only a yellowish fleshy part remains. Boiling them or simply salting and drying them out in the sun are some of the ways that mopane worms can be prepared for the pot.
