I grew this variety specifically for making okra stew and garden egg sauce, and it performed beautifully. Authentic taste, perfect texture, and easy to grow even in clay soil.
Everyone asked about these at the garden swap—they’re really striking. More rounded and stocky than regular eggplant, and the flavor is bold without being overpowering.
I usually grow the Italian types, but this one won me over. Thicker skin but less bitterness, and the size is perfect for slicing into curries or grilling.
Goyo Kumba grew like champs in my raised beds. Plants were sturdy, and they gave me fruit even in dry spells. Definitely a good choice for those looking for heat-tolerant crops.
This eggplant holds its shape well in soups and sauces, which is exactly what I needed. Has a slightly nutty taste that adds something special to African and Caribbean dishes.
