    This was so cute….. I can identify with Tom. I’m a Westerner, my husband is Ghanaian. I went to visit his Sister in the States….She threw me a small welcome party, and decided to make Fufu and a stew. Wanting to be helpful, I went about “ setting the table” with knife and fork of course…..Everyone had a good laugh as my sister in law explained…….”You don’t eat Fufu with knife and fork”!! Married almost fifty years, we now travel to West Africa regularly for our Missions Ministry. I still eat my African dishes with cutlery

      For your Maiza flour, we have wat we call Garri" . Its made from cassava and we make "Eba" with it. We prepare it the way u prepare ur Maize flour. We also hv other "swallows" - ie, (ur Maize flour. )Dats d way we call here in Nigeria. These "swallows" can be eaten with any kind of soup. Taste yummy - yummy !!😋.
      Well, we can understand Tom...not too worry. Just like Joy said, when u make this type of meal, it's beta to use ur Hands. Dat way, u enjoy it beta. Well done guys!! 👍

  • @tsavoritequeen9897
    @tsavoritequeen9897 2 ปีที่แล้ว +3

    Hi Joy. I am a coastal lady from Mombasa. I normally soak my omena with warm water for five minutes. Then proceed to wash it with warm water until it looks silver-like in colour. On the last step of washing I usually use cold or room-temperature-water, then strain the water.
    2. Pan dry the omena on medium heat.
    3. Shallow fry the omenas until they are almost brown, then I add sliced onions, freshly crashed (in pestle and mortar) ginger and garlic and a pinch of salt until the omena are golden brown and crispy.
    4. I prepare tomato stew full of spices and herbs as per my preference.
    5. Serve with soft warm- hot sima (ugali).
    In other words, I do not cook omena and tomato stew in one pan. I feel like tomatoes and other spices weaken the aroma of crispy fried omena. (My opinion and observation).

Or just fry in soup until its brown and add any coating. For Sadza (Ugali) we boil water then mix cold water and mealie meal (maize flour) aside just a little and add to the boiling water and stir until its like porridge then leave it cooking for some minutes then add mealie meal as required but don't make it hard. serve as you want.

Amala, poundo yam/potato, semovita, oat swallow, are made the way you made your ugali. Though garri is mostly made without putting it on the stove top.

    I first wash it (omena) with hot water then deep fry it in some little oil . Then heat my pan , fry my onions afterwards put my tomatoes (some salt) and lastly put my omena . The last part I add some milk 😋😋 Joy you should try to add some fresh milk I'm sure you loves will love it (. That's if you take milk 🤤)
