I like to host guests at my home from time to time, and I am gathering  recipes of different dishes and drinks to keep things interesting. I am interested in trying some Kenyan dishes. Can you give me a recipe for Samaki?

I could if I knew what a samaki was, and there are a few options. Do you know which region of Kenya it is from?  Are you aware that there are many different peoples of Kenya who use many different languages? 
If you could narrow it down a bit, I could try.

In Swahili samaki' is fish. The dish is popular in the Lake Victoria and Lake Naivasha area.

Oh! The dish is sometimes served in restaurants with chips. If you’re ready for the recipe now, it’s called Samaki wa Chip.  The ingredients are chips, cooked beans, onions, and tomatoes, plus the chopped fish and lemon juice.  The order is to first mix all of the ingredients except the fish and lemon juice in a bowl.  Then to add a bit of cooking oil to the frying pan, and when it’s heated to a boil add the fish.  After 5 minutes the fish should be cooked and the mixture mixed with the fish.  Finally you add the lemon juice and turn off the heat.  Here’s the recipe and the translated directions.

That sounds delicious. Is it possible to skip chopping up the fish. I find fish has more flavor when I cook it whole with the bone in.
