IYes, I just bought more pigeon peas, I’m gonna make it tonight.
Me too i loves the way he is following his grandpa's footsteps...that little man is carrying so much of weight to transfer knowledge from Mokko to allot of people derives from the "ancestry" gonna be remarkable 👏 👍 now that's special and is worth a real ""BIG UP"""..word up
I used to watch these videos a lot with my ex, throughout the lockdown. If you're still watching these vids. I hope you're the happiest person in the world, you deserve nothing but the best. Sorry how things went, but I hope you know I love you very much, in good times and bad.
Such a joy to see the Ras Kitchen team back at it. Big up Mokko and the whole team and I want to send a special big up to you Matthew for your hard work, dedication and expertise - you are appreciated brother.
remembering the days when ratty was a baby and mokko had calvin klein boxers for his hair, crazy has little has changed but life looks so relaxing. bless up.
Priceless priceless priceless!Classic! It would be nice if all these videos are brought together on DVD or a boxset. I hope Mokko makes lots of money from this. His laughter is so infectious. Beautiful!
Love the whole ambience of show Matthew..Im an old weed smoking Irish man and would love if you could ask Mokko to talk and give a bit of local incite into the Irish influence and relationship between the African and Irish in Jamaica today. Our ancestors where the original slaves brought to Jamaica. If any viewers of Mattews channel can help with the history. All the better!..Peace to all..
@@goexplorer8822 hi my surname is Mcfarlane an Irish or Scottish name inherited from either. I would love to visit either land some day one LOVE from Jamaica ?
@@blacklove4125 Dude your name is of Scotich decent. But at the same time you have to take into account the fact thet the Irish where invading the British Isles long before the Anglo Normans came to visit us. The lands of Ireland Scotland and Wales all came under the Celtic Nations. But at the end of the day it does not matter. You are of Celtic decent.
When i was in Jamaica! I turned into a maroon! No lie! got lost in the Jungle and washed up on the banks of the river! I was so gone so to speak! I just felt free and well, perhaps the jungle provided me with the get away i needed to get my mind right! Sometimes i think back and i wonder? What in the hell was wrong with me? At any rate: we live and we learn
Eonflexx, good day, glad you loosed yourself in the jungle, refreshed and revitalised self body and mind, hope you are on a straighter, less rugged path now, God bless.
Man wasnt made to live like how we live now so when the mind reconnected with nature it went into primal instincts mode n you just went in to a natural trance man people who are disconnected from it so long can get lost in it no cap i feel its a spiritual thing mostly connecting with God and all that ima do some more research on it cuz it has happened to alot of people
We know all about Rain problems here in Britain. It can be blue skies for miles around and out of of nowhere it will start raining, the joys of living on an Island....
Starving now, the man Matthew is a true inspiration in many ways, love to get the chance to sit at his table for a Irie Ital time. He is on my bucket list, we love the vibe =)
Back home we call it fungi 'We also use it for porridge n we can put dey corn meal n dumplings as well watching this stuff makes me feel like eating it so I will make some today yeah man island vibes.
Matthew the man is back I love you Matthew ✝️🤍💜🥰💯🖐🏾🖐🏾🖐🏾you footage is Beautiful have a blessed day stay safe Moko loves you like a son I love your communication 👍👍👍💯
Man that moment at 8.25 when he said about the rain: "When it starts" and you added "It won't stop". That was so dope man. Great timing and connection between two friends)) love you guys ♥️♥️♥️
Bruh with that rain falling on those roofs like that and some of Mokko's (HIGH GRADE) I bet You they could hear Me Snoring on the other Side of Them Mountains!!
Mathew, it is a portage, High fiber, a real staple, starch stick too the ribs, how many dishes does this man among men know, Mokko is a national Treasure, feeling blessed, thank you Mathew for putting your talents too good we all appreciate you organic brother, put good on the path and good comes, bless up.
I have woodchucks that eat my garden vegetables. Almost cleaned me out! May I ask, how does Mokko avoid garden pests? Do you have animals that eat the plants before you can eat them ? Thank you sir.
For pest like bugs try to spray mint or rosemary water. It works for my plants. Idk what to do for the woodchucks tho. Maybe get a cat! They’re good at killing rodents lol
In Australia we have possums that do the same. I feed them on scraps, keep small plants out of their reach or under wire. And try and grow enough of things they eat so that their is enough for them too. Trying to fight them dosent work. ☺
Other then the usual flying pests, I believe some birds and domestic livestock may pose a threat to ones garden in Jamaica. The livestock are easy to keep from your garden with fencing or tying them and the bird’s don’t cause too much damage.
Fence or relocation using a humane trap like this. Nothing you spray will keep them away. I had to learn the hard way. www.amazon.com/Havahart-1-Door-Raccoons-Groundhogs-Opossums/dp/B00004RAMT
We call that 'Fungii' in Antigua but we make it with okra.Boil the okra 1st then take some of the water out to help turn the cornmeal with a flat broad wooden stick to make it smooth.
In Trinidad 🇹🇹we call it cou cou. Everyone makes it differently, but I fry onion, garlic, parsley, celery, then I add coconut milk, my cornmeal mix & leave to steam/ cook. I eat this with dasheen bush calloo & peas. You can add fry, stew fish, or meat.
Very delicious 😋 and versatile Corn pone/ turn cornmeal... with or without gungo peas also makes hot water cornbread other times it's prepared similar to Mokko's recipe and steamed inside a banana leaf served with rice&peas with fresh fish or stewed chicken
Totally amazed, as a kid growing up in Jamaica turn cornmeal was cooked only for the dogs, we fed it to the dogs!!! As an adult I’ve seen it as a delicacy in Italy, India and Africa. I just can’t get past eating it since I’m my mind my first introduction to it was giving it to our dogs!!!!
Bwoy mi can't tell wen last mi nuame turn cornmeal! My mother use to mak it mi can't do it mi wrist can't manage it! Fulljoyed di video & music Big Up's Matthew Manners and Respect Mokko & Family 💯❤🇯🇲
Big up to my ancestors who survived the middle passage. Tun cormeal was slave food, then poor people food. Now a delicacy. Great video.
✊🏾🪓⛓
Was it marcus garvey who travelled through texas? I need to do my research.
It came from the Italians but was fed to the slaves and now we eat it still
Tun cornmeal ain’t SLAVE food 🤦🏾♂️ , it’s the main starch eaten in South Africa !

We call that 'Fungii' in Antigua but we make it with okra.Boil the okra 1st then take some of the water out to help turn the cornmeal with a flat broad wooden stick to make it smooth.
Do you have a picture of it? Would the okra break apart?
I dont have a picture but it does dissolve to a point making it slimey and smooth
We cook peas and grits something like that in The Bahamas. Grits instead of cornmeal. Respect rasta!
I love this channel! I love the soft music that plays in the background ❤️❤️
