I grabbed a bag of these about 2 months ago because I love beans and had never seen these before. I just put them to soak and am excited to try them tomorrow.
@Umm Carter, they are very nice, they need a good bit of liquid and flavour into them as they are powdery. Hope they turn out well for you. Thank you for watching and leaving a comment 🙏
Hi darkangelsoap hope you will have a nice time in Kenya and get to know and enjoy Kenyan food, it's so easy to cook most of Kenyan meals. please do let me know after a while how you are getting on in Kenya, and cooking skills. Thanks and take care.
Dine with Jane Thanks for the kind words. My future wife is Kenyan and I want to impress her by knowing some of her favorite dishes, She said this is her mom's favorite so I thought it would be a great way to score points! Haha! I am moving to Diani beach. It is like paradise there!
+darkangelsoaps Oh you are welcome, that's very nice that you want to learn and know Kenyan food, I say she will be very happy to see that you have made some effort to know about Kenyan food. Yes Diani is like paradise, very beautiful and the weather is lovely at the coast. Enjoy your time there.
My aunt is from Kenya and her whole family, I grew up watching and helping her make everything. My favorite is Chapati's, they are so incredible and have so flavorful! It goes with everything. I wish I remembered what the name was, its basically like a doughnut. You can leave it plain or roll the fried dough in sugar. We always had that with our tea. ( Tea with Milk.). I never liked the tea but my mom goes crazy over it. lol. Thank you so very much for taking the time to make a video, it brought back some amazing memories. :) My ultimate favorite food and it will never change! :)
+Annette Smith, Hi Annette it's good to hear from you, and thanks for watching, and the lovely compliments, I love Kenyan food myself, and enjoy most of it. keep watching and thanks. Bye
We're Trinidadian .... i've made this recipe a few times now and my family loves it..... i have to omit the fresh coriander leaves though... cant seem to find that in Trinidad... still delicious... ty for sharing your version.
This lady is so lovely. I loved watching this video. Thank you so much for taking the time and teaching us your lovely home recipe. For those foolish people who put a thumbs down shame on you!. Thank you Jane and God bless you 🙏🙌❤❤
Hi Eve welcome to my channel and joining this little family of mine here on TH-cam, hope you find some nice and easy recipes here. Take care and thanks for watching.
This looks like such a delicious recipe Jane, and I’m so grateful that you shared it 🙏🏻. I’m also very impressed by your chopping skill 🤩 Take good care and greetings from your new subscriber from Northern Ireland ☘️
Hie Tee Tee, not sure they are sweet, they are definately different from most of beans, but I won't say they are sweet, they are very powdery if we have such word. Do you have ones that are sweet? Thanks for your question.
+Dine with Jane..I Live in the US but I lived in Kenya for a year(last year).I bought some black beans and I could have sworn they were sweet,but everybody taste palette is different.Anyway they were extremely hard even after I soak them the night before and cooked them for what seemed like hours.They still remained very hard..I admit they had a good flavor but too hard.I think I bought some bad black beans😀.If that's possible☺️.hehe
Hie Tee Tee I thought maybe you had it when someone had made it cause their is a meal like that with black beans with bananas mashed together, it's a traditional dish.
In europe we have real black, I mean they don’t have that white thing,, I never cooked them coz I didn’t know what they,, they remain black after soaking,,, question is are (njahis) black beans..?
@shotdownbird, they are not njahi, they could just be black beans ama turtle beans which are more tiny, and the black ones that are not njahi don't taste the same, njahi are more floury in texture.
Looks lovely, we have grown Kenyan black beans for the first time and are going to cook this for our first taste. Thank you.

What type of rice is best and most authentic to Kenya?
I would say basmati rice, as pishori can be a bit pricy, I use basmati.
I love that
I will try later... thnx👍🤔

Please increase volume

Hi Shiku, yes it is in my to do list should be coming soon. Thanks for your request. :-)
If I wanted to add a protein(Meat) what would you suggest?
Either on the side or in the Kenyan Style Black Beans Stew
Hi Heather I would add beef, it's not too strong in flavour. Thanks for your question.

Thank you so much. You are a very beautiful lady
Thank you Sarah what a lovely compliment. I appreciate it.
where did you buy your pan?
Hie Jasmine my Mum gave me the pan so I can't help you am sorry about that. Thanks for watching.
For some reason, I thought the orange vegetable was like a pumpkin or butternut squash, not carrots lol
Hie Ray you can use either of those vegetables, only that they might cook quicker than carrots and maybe mash up too. Thanks for watching.
Are black beans somewhat sweet?
Hie Tee Tee, not sure they are sweet, they are definately different from most of beans, but I won't say they are sweet, they are very powdery if we have such word. Do you have ones that are sweet? Thanks for your question.

+Tee Tee I bought the beans and cooked the beans while living in Kenya
Hie Tee Tee I thought maybe you had it when someone had made it cause their is a meal like that with black beans with bananas mashed together, it's a traditional dish.

The english name is "black hyacinth beans". Just fyi🤪
