A Kenyan Living.

Happy Thursday my people!!! I hope you have been great past half year and the just commenced last quarter is taking all of you easy. It’s been hard for us all with election campaigns and subsequent voting, it’s still not over till it’s over, The supreme court’s verdict is to come in the next two weeks. Anyway, politics aside. It has been a challenging past couple of years for most of us. Every single year comes with a new set of challenges and this year seems to be the year of tightening belts that were already suffocatingly tight! It will be a challenge, but we will overcome! And as we go through economically tough year lets us also think on how to make our stomach full.

Challenges will always be there, therefore let us make room for joy in whichever way it finds us. I am currently deeply enjoying my cooking with the family and friends. I am enjoying the noise and sizzling onions from the pot. I am enjoying scents of fresh flavours and Kenyan aromas in my home. And certainly, I am enjoying great food! Tilapia fish is a must in most of family meals.

My days collection:fried tilapia with ugali And spinach .

I have done several stew recipes (chicken, beef, fish )in the past but this one is the one I love most; chicken stew/curry with a mild spicy touch. Food shouldn’t be boring , Food shouldn’t be expensive..get the most available ingredients and turn around the basics. This is exactly how I make my stews at home and I am particularly excited about sharing this beauty with you guys.Kienyeji chicken is delicious, she is slow cooked, she is unforgettably heavenly. !

Today it’s not about recipe but generally how to make your Kenyan plate awesome.If getting local chicken is a challenge or expensive then go for broiler which is cheaper and good for deepfry or broasting .

Finally don’t forget the kids who like their fries and some chicken rolled Naan.
