Haha! Kiwi watching from China. They make the same donuts here too. I actually searched "Samoan donuts" into TH-cam because it was a Samoan place in Otahuhu where I had them.
First of all thank you so much! I’ve come across a lot of keke isite videos and I just needed help with one specific instruction and that was how to form the dough in your hand and put it into the oil!! That has helped me a lot and I can’t wait to make
I love seeing other ways to make it, my family do have our own recipe of the keke but the method of how she squeezed it into the pan is the same way my grandma taught me. Love this!
I haven't had some of these in so long! I miss it. I used to rent a room from a Togan family and every once in a while they'd make this. It was so good! Do you happen to know what this drink (they never told me the name of it) where you use shredded fruit and coconut milk?
Made these the other day, thanks for sharing the recipe! That smell of them cooking, brought back some early memories watching Aunties make these. The rest of us kids would help by mixing batter and get a few!😂 By itself or with butter and cocoa its the best! ❤
Malo aupito for this! My grandma use to make this & this was one of the many things I wish I learned to make that she made for me. Now I can try. Puteni & faikakai next on my list.
Interesting listening to that song my dad is a Polynesian Hawaiian and I wonder I know in Hawaiian noho means sit down kuiluna means stand up I wonder if they were talking about Tahitian dance when they ami down to the ground and then stand up all the time shaking it in Hawaii on the island of Kauai in Lihue they hold the Tahiti fete and all my life living in Hawaii and being half Hawaiian I only understand some Hawaiian most Polynesians look down on us for not knowing our own language but what they don’t know is that in the past our culture and language was banned if we were to even enter a church or be baptized we had to have a English name it’s so sad that’s why I love watching Māori and Samoan videos because I see a lot of similarities in our cultures all I know is what my puna taught me and my kumu and my dad bits and pieces but still there
Do you have any videos of drinks made? My step daughter is missing things from her home and I want to give her some comfort. Something like otai? I'm sorry I have no names and was just looking in the comments. Just made her some Keke but im sure she wouldn't mind something delicious to wash it down with ^.^
Not too sure what you mean by kuki doughnuts, but growing up I use to buy doughnuts that was similar to the keke isite and was covered with sugar (it was so good lol)
Meaning you are playing a cook island song henceforth the slang abbreviation kuki, so I'm saying would you have any idea as to how make cook island donuts? the best donuts ever lol
OK so what do you know it as? cause everyone thats polynesian in Nz and Australia know exactly what cook island donuts are , not being a egg here just curious I'm guessing you live in the U.S
Lol I tried making this for my first time umm... Sooooooo not round ND perfect like yours 🤣 I'll keep trying tho lol Thank you for sharing your recipe 💖🤙 Mahaloz
Maybe your dough was too runny? If thats the case just add a bit more flour so it can be thick and hold its form. Also make sure your oil is hot enough when you throw the dough in. Let me know how it goes! If not dm me and I'll help you step by step.
@@TasteoftheSouthpacific Thank you I'm not sure what I did wrong, but my dough was bit thick so I added more water. I did fry in the pot, I think it's the way I put the cake in form like a flat oval shape instead of round
@@moanamafi9956 Ok, the consistency of your dough sounds about right, maybe to make it easier for you, let your dough be a little thick that way you can easily form the round shape when frying it.
There's some slight differences between the two: Tongan *Faikakai* (uses mahoa'a or mei) // Sāmoan *Fa'ausi* (uses kalo) Tongan *Lū Pulu* (uses meat/fish) // Sāmoan *Palusami* (no meat/fish) Tongan *Tōpai* (usually white in color) // Sāmoan *Kopai* (brown in color)
in africa we call this puff puff .. so interesting to see how different cultures eat the same things
Are there any differences between the two recipes or methods?
Did you get my text? Well you didn’t text me back no not at all
I know, right? I think we can globally agree that fried dough is one of the best culinary inventions ever. I'm going to look up puff puff now.
Many cultures have similar foods tbh
Say in Nigeria it’s called puff puff… every African country has their name for it.
Tongan donuts and RaroTongan music in the background!! What a nice combination..
Lol thanks!

The many things I took for granted was not learning how to make this from my father. Time to cook some for my kid's and grandchildren 🤙🏾🤟🏾💚🇹🇴

th-cam.com/video/-cQwa90ue9g/w-d-xo.html&frags=pl%2Cwn here's the link on the steam pudding
Do you have any videos of drinks made? My step daughter is missing things from her home and I want to give her some comfort. Something like otai? I'm sorry I have no names and was just looking in the comments. Just made her some Keke but im sure she wouldn't mind something delicious to wash it down with ^.^
Of course, there's 2 videos of watermelon & mango otai. You can check the videos on my channel.

Yes it does. Will definitely make one with those included
Oh my god I would have never thought that sounds amazing
❤
Panikeke 😍 Samoan version
Malasadas Hawaiian/Portuguese version.

I've noticed that a kuki song is playing just wondering if you know how to make the kuki donuts?
Not too sure what you mean by kuki doughnuts, but growing up I use to buy doughnuts that was similar to the keke isite and was covered with sugar (it was so good lol)
Meaning you are playing a cook island song henceforth the slang abbreviation kuki, so I'm saying would you have any idea as to how make cook island donuts? the best donuts ever lol
lol yes i do, I also grew up with eating loads of it back in Tonga. But we didn't refer to it as cook island doughnuts hence the confusion
OK so what do you know it as? cause everyone thats polynesian in Nz and Australia know exactly what cook island donuts are , not being a egg here just curious I'm guessing you live in the U.S
Oh don't worry, I just knew it as island doughnuts back home in Tonga
Yum
Mea fakatupu ua kai tama ♥️♥️♥️ofa atu

YUM!!! Gonna go over to my mums on Sunday so she can make me some, this and milo is better then sex haha jokes but it's pretty good.
I am really hope them hands are washing or cleaned up.
My hands are always washed and cleaned when cooking.
Samoan and Tongan have almost all the same food except like horse
Fesuiaiga Hwang , nah bruh, Tongans don't eat Mayonnaise with ice cream. 🍧
Lol. And Samoan, we had to stop to replenish the stock.lol. it was running low.
@@marcustuuhetoka1340 lmao who does that? I think that was just your friend alone that eats mayo with icecream.
Yeah this is almost exactly the same as the Samoan pagikeke
There's some slight differences between the two:
Tongan *Faikakai* (uses mahoa'a or mei) // Sāmoan *Fa'ausi* (uses kalo)
Tongan *Lū Pulu* (uses meat/fish) // Sāmoan *Palusami* (no meat/fish)
Tongan *Tōpai* (usually white in color) // Sāmoan *Kopai* (brown in color)

No... No to the hand all through the dough poor hygiene practice. On a lighter note looks yum
Kaide Porter that’s how it’s traditionally made
Thats how its made traditionally
then use a spoon, *idiot...* Just know that your keke won't be as round, though.
Kaide Porter Are you stupid?? You do realise that people need dough with their hands right?? *GTFOH*
