Round about (roundabout): frozen cow small intestine for wholesale in the EU and UK

Round about (also roundabout) is the small intestine of the cow, cleaned and cut into pieces. The name comes from the way the intestine coils up when cooked, like a roundabout.

In our range (Afri-mama brand, frozen) we supply round about cleaned and kitchen-ready, in 15 x 500 gram packs. Alongside Shaki (beef tripe) and Abodi, round about is part of the core offal range for the African kitchen.

The same product goes by several names:

English: round about, roundabout, cow intestine, beef intestine, cow small intestine, small intestine.
Nigerian (Yoruba): ifun.
Dutch: rundedarm, dunne darm van het rund, rundse darmen.

It always means the same thing: cleaned, frozen cow intestine for soups, stews and assorted meat.

Round about is rich in protein and collagen, with the firm, chewy texture the African kitchen values. It soaks up flavour well and is a staple of:

• Nigerian pepper soup and assorted meat (a mix of offal)
• Ofada stew and ayamase
• Omi obe and other stews
• Grilled and spiced meat platters

For your store, round about is a core SKU for returning customers, often sold together with Shaki and Abodi.
