COOKING AFRICAN FOOD WITH MY KIDS | SINGLE FOSTER DAD MAKES DINNER

  • เผยแพร่เมื่อ 8 เม.ย. 2023
  • Today I'm cooking with my kids to share a taste of my childhood in Africa. We're making a delicious chicken stew with a side of Chapati, an East African flatbread that's perfect for sopping up all the savory goodness. To make things easy, we're using an Instant Pot, and to add some authentic flavor, we're using a special blend of African spices. It's a recipe that's close to my heart and I can't wait to share it with you. If you're feeling adventurous, give it a try for yourself! Just grab an Instant Pot and some African spice blend and let's cook up something special together.

    I love how you bond with your kids. You train and discipline them so well. And in return they love and respect you. You are so kind and caring Peter. Wish you and your kids the best of everything. God Bless!

    Anthony looks like he could be a chef one day. He really seems to enjoy helping.

      It's awesome he is helping with the meals. I do worry about how he uses the knife as his fingers aren't safe from the blade.

    Mom of 3 and now Grandmother of 10. Growing up poor is one of life’s great lessons. It gives you appreciation for everything you have worked hard for as well as knowing how to stretch a dollar. While living on the streets, going hungry is nothing I would wish on anyone having everything handed to you as a child,abundance and luxury does not always make a good human!

    The obstacles that you have been through, not having basic nourishment as a child, is unfathomable to most people in the western world. To see what kind of human being you've transcended in spite of your adversity is so inspiring! The world needs more examples of mean such as yourself. You truly are touched by the Devine force of Love and you transmute that to your children in such a beautiful way.

      I think having the children help with the shopping and prep made them excited to try something new. They could see the ingredients were all familiar things and it was fun mixing the chapati dough. And Anthony is learning some good skills. He seems quite adept with the knife already.😊

    I loved watching this video it was one of my favorite. Those ingredients looked delicious. Those vegetables, chicken and everything else. No it was not to many cooks in the kitchen. In this case it was necessary for the leader and all the futures cooks to be in the kitchen for this wonderful lesson on cooking. It was beautiful seeing Anothony interested in learning and participating in preparing the meal with you and seeing the smaller kids participating in preparing the meal as well. I loved seeing them in aprons about to do some serious helping preparing the meal. I loved hearing you share with us and your kids your episode in your childhood of not having enough food to eat as a child. i watched all of them as you were speaking and they all was tune in, especially your daughter who was turned toward you while you were speaking this was showing them that you are able to relate to them. It was more lovely to hear you say to them how it is a blessing that they have plenty of food to eat and it should not be wasted. it was heartwarming to hearing you looking out for Anothony by telling him to be careful to keep him from cutting himself while cutting the vegetables. Anothony looked like a chief cutting those vegetables. Also, It was beautiful seeing Anothony assisting his siblings with the prepping of the meal and lovely watching you instruct Anothony and the smaller kids on how to cook the meal. It was more beautiful watching the kids demonstrate showing love and kindness to each other and helping one another just like you taught them to do and have been a model before them on how to do this. Those kids love you and it is very visible that you love them too. i can't imagine them having fights. If they are off camera, it will not survive because they are bombarded with too much love and a good model and coach to make all of that go away forever. You all are one beautiful family.
    Keep loving, protecting, being a good role model before Anothony and the smaller kids
    keep teaching them things to prepare them for life and steering all four of them in a good direction.
    when you see the beautiful, loving, well-mannered, civilized and successful adults they become and hear Anothony and your younger son furture wives thanking you for the good husbands you taught your sons to be by teaching them to help with the smaller siblings, teaching them to clean the house, teaching them to cook meals and wash dishes afterward, how to apologize for the sake of peace and to hug to get rid of a quarrel, to take out the garbage, how to make a female feel special and give them your special attention, respecting females you will be glad that you did. Keep up the good work. You are a good Papa

    Growing up, chicken stew was one of my favorites (my grandma made it). When I was little my mother made bland boiled chicken and rice. I took that bland chicken and rice and changed the recipe and to this day my youngest daughter calls me when she is sick to make it because it cures everything she has from her stomach issues to her common cold and flu. She feels relief she says by the next day most times. What is the change? I actually use flavors in the chicken and rice.. My daughter calls it, "Mom's Chicken." When you grow up on something, and it does not taste great, you can improve the flavors. If it is already great, leave it alone.

    Hi Peter I love watching your videos with your children.
    Thank you for sharing your lives with us.
    If you add your seasonings and some butter to the instapot for the rice, in the beginning!
    It will cook into the rice.
    And the rice will come out with a savory flavor of whatever seasoning you use.
    The better will help to keep the rice fluffy and flavorful!
    So that it doesn't stick together in clumps.
    And it doesn't stick to the spoon when you're serving it.

    Have you thought about having hellofresh to sponsor your videos?
    They have all kind of meal plans for you to pick from.
    They have recipe cards with pictures & instructions.
    You can save 40% off your groceries.
    It comes right to your door!
    It will save you time and energy of going to the grocery store and you will have nothing left over.
    You can start it or stop it at any time.
    You can also change your meal plans at anytime.
    It would be so much fun to watch you and Anthony and your children
    Making hello fresh meals together.
    They have a lot of variety!
    And children love the food.
    It is very healthy! & Delicious.

    Do you know what makes your videos so special? It is the fact that they don't look highly produced. The little's are interrupting and they are talking in the background. Your big is teaching the little's. It's so natural and you can tell it's not contrived. I know it's edited, but it doesn't look highly produced and that's what makes it real and reliable..
