I literally wanted to cry watching you make this coo coo. I don’t know what it was but honey I’m teary eyed lol. It’s like you really forget the joys of family and cooking. It makes me wish I had paid more attention to cooking growing up when my family was in the kitchen cooking. I think it’s the opportunity missed is what I’m teary about. Thank you for sharing and I pray you’re grateful for the lessons your family taught you.
Good diction,everything and tidy and well organized, you make it look very easy so that we want to try your recipes. Excellent presentation. Well done.
Well, I learned something new. I went to the store to get some red snapper...fileted...$32 for 2 fish. He asked me if I wanted the heads, for that price, yes!!! Now I need to know how to make some fish head stew. You are a great inspiration, very well spoken, and I love the way you explain everything. Keep up the good work.
That coo coo was the star, for me. I never knew that coconut milk could be added to it. I could almost taste its amazing flavor. Mouth watering. The boiled ground food, the stew fish, all well done. All you need was a nice cool glass of mauby to wash everything down. Excellent meal. Thank you for sharing. Blessings.😋🤤🙏🏽
Wow!!! You had a "seriously" RIGHTEOUS grandmother. She will be called from labour to reward for her EXTREME "kindness." Her blessed sharing to one & all as a "true" Israelite will allow her descendantS to REAP the rewards of her blessings also. She sure laid a GREAT foundation for you all. Omein.
Hi Arlene, thank you so much for making this video. I always wanted to learn to make coo coo. I tried your coo coo and fish and it came out great. My sister loves it. Thank you again and keep doing all these wonderful videos :)
I was a bit sceptical at first with the coo coo method but I'm really glad I watched until the end. I enjoyed the video and the food looked so delicious that I'm willing to give this method a try. Looking forward to other videos.
So refreshing to see a cook/kitchen engineer/food designer with decent healthy looking nails. Congratulations! You know Arlene; I really love your personality; you are not about pretense. Nice meal.
Wowww..What a delicious meal!! Visited Barbados recently and boy did I enjoy this dish from a family member. My husband asked her to make it again for him and she did. LOL. I will be making your version soon Arlene. Thank you so much for this recipe. God Bless. ❤️
Don't take this in a weird way...you have beautiful hands, clean, no nail polish, etc. Overall,one of the best videos I've seen and I watch a lot of cooking videos🇯🇲🇯🇲🇯🇲
love to learn to cook dishes with you thanks so much you make it so easy i learned corn soup from you and now coo coo please continue cooking you really help me
Hi! Just happen to stumble on your channel.... and boy, let me tell you.... that coo coo and fish - in fact everything looked so mouth watering! I'm definitely going to try the coo coo using your recipe instead of mine. Thanks!
I love your channel, however, I prefer to use a wooden spoon in Teflon pans just to save them from becoming scraped. Enjoyed the fish and provision creole style here "Yum"
When we live abroad for a long time, our taste buds change because of the different cuisines that we are exposed to. The people who stick to Caribbean spicy dishes can continue to eat the spicy foods. Others get a sick stomach with the spices. I remember eating that type of food. If I ate like this now, I would end up weighing three hundred pounds. Thanks for the recipes and the demonstrations.
Let yuh point make sense. I'm living abroad since 12yrsold.some 35 yrs now. I can still eat it all. Atleast once a wk I eat food from home. I weigh147. My sister wears a Size 6.. it's not the Foo d. It's you.
that looks so good. most americans don't know what cou cou is and when you tell them there is okra in it, they cringe. i don't even let them know how good it is because i love it so much that I don't want to share it. LOL great job
I am American Born but my family are from Barbados my father used to cook this for us we was a kid and I used to love some coo coo the last time I had coo coo about 5 years ago with my aunt came to America from Barbados and I asked her to make me some I love cool cool and I grew up on red snappers and stew fish head can you make that for your next video if you know how to the stew fish head and stuff fish my father used to make that all the time he's the one from Barbados so I had the best of both worlds the Caribbean world an American World
Hi Arlene. You are so humble, classy and talented. You make everything with a unique twist. I will try your recipes one by one. Love from Angel in Trinidad. 🇹🇹❤️🇹🇹❤️🇹🇹❤️🇹🇹
Looks very lovely the only different we peel our ground provision before we boil them. Jamaican British in UK thank you for sharing always looks beautiful and inviting
I've never made coucou before but you made it look so easy, so I'm gonna give it a go. Pray for me! P.S. Ya hot meh heart using that metal spoon on that non-stick pan tho😛
Oh my god, knowing there are women like you in the world, wonderful women of the earth and sky, women who can cook a good food, women so heartbreakingly beautiful I can imagine the full spectrum of love again, the fantastic and the ordinary. I deserve a woman like this in my life.
The Stewed fish came out excellent. The provision is doing well but my coo coo came out a little too runny. The top looks good but the bottom is not. Soooo lol I put it in the toaster oven. smh.
I fixed it. Nothing happened to change the consistency of the coo coo when I put it in the oven. So I peeled off the top poured the runny coo coo back into a pot added more corn meal and stirred a lot. then... voila! It began to thicken. I poured it into a dish and it looks great.
Hey Arlene, OH MY GOODNESS YOU CAN COOK! I'm prepping to try this tonight, I just have one question. Do you cut your big provisions in half before boiling? I hope you get this and be able to respond. Thanks for your help
I tried this complete meal my husband love it so much especially the fish the coco didn't come out good for me it was to slimy but amma try again thank you for the amazing recipe

First time I have seen it made like this. Interesting.
This looks completely like heaven
Damn, she pretty, and that accent ;)
Thanks . Smiles
Hope you don't mind me sharing your website to friends online... I love your presentations and details.
I already had my King fish out, corn meal and provision when I saw this. What luck! :) I like how you did this. I am going to get stared now.
Lorraine Constantine-Tobias happy cooking . Pls share pics
Arleen help!
The Stewed fish came out excellent. The provision is doing well but my coo coo came out a little too runny. The top looks good but the bottom is not. Soooo lol I put it in the toaster oven. smh.
I fixed it. Nothing happened to change the consistency of the coo coo when I put it in the oven. So I peeled off the top poured the runny coo coo back into a pot added more corn meal and stirred a lot. then... voila! It began to thicken. I poured it into a dish and it looks great.
I love the way you present, big thumbs up
I keep coming back to this recipe for coo coo, it's good
Hey Arlene, OH MY GOODNESS YOU CAN COOK! I'm prepping to try this tonight, I just have one question. Do you cut your big provisions in half before boiling? I hope you get this and be able to respond. Thanks for your help
Casi Hospice hello... yes you can cut them. All the best
Would like to see more recipes. New Subscriber.

Great. I'm glad you were successful. Try a little less ochros next time
Quite good but I would saute aromatics first before adding coconut milk.
Thank you would certainly use your method to make coo coo.
👌
