Tasty githeri

Githeri being my best meal.....I decided to have it for lunch just rock away my weekend hungovers

Githeri is my favourite kikuyu traditional dish. Its simple to prepare and saves a lot of time.

I love it coz it's my grandmother's favourite and all of grannies cookings are sweet and lovely. I can't just have enough of it. Whenever I wrong my grandma, I always make sure to prepare this dish for her just to please her, and it surely works.

This is the food I grew up eating.. #themechallenge

I use the word EXOTIC in the title because this is a creation of mine incorporating many different culinary styles I used in this dish. Hope everyone enjoys! Comments are always welcome here.

Matumbo is one the foods being eaten in kenya. Enjoy mine it very tasty

The traditional Menudo from the Philippines includes pork liver, which is absent from this version (I’m not a fan of liver). The use of annatto (atsuete) oil, fresh tomatoes and tomato paste results in the dish’s characteristic red sauce, which was what I was aiming for. The red sauce should be a bit thick, and I didn’t have to add more chicken broth, which would have thinned it out, but use it to suite your taste. I usually add cubed carrots, but I didn’t have them at hand. This is best served with cooked rice on the side.

I just love this soup. It's filling and oh so good! Especially in the Winter. This is the soup that'll make everyone happy.

My mom made potato soup while I was growing up. It is good stuff! I have my own flavors in mine that suit me but the basic recipe is hers.

Easy to make on the truck. My husband loves this stuff.

My Aunt Edna's husband likes his potato salad with some shrimp. So this is my aunts recipe. If you love seafood this one is for you! If not leave out the shrimp.

Inspired by the way beans are cooked in The Art of Simple Food by Alice Waters, and the need to start using the thyme that is growing abundantly in my garden. I like this stew because the canned beans give it a buttery mouth feel even though it is a vegan dish. The thyme and garlic smell delicious.

If there’s one thing almost everyone loves, it’s potatoes made just the way we like them. Here’s how I made mine.

I must admit this recipe is really for a beef pie, but the insides where so good, why not just have the insides!! I think it qualifies for stew!! You can cook the first part in a skillet but you do need a Dutch oven to complete it. It is rather fiddly to make but I guarantee you'll be happy with the results. Props to my hubby as well for the photography as usual!!

My family loves this soup. I hope you enjoy it as much as we do.

This is a great dinner you can prepare the night before and let it cook on low all night! Very good with bread and butter or biscuits! Very filling :hungry

Creamy, simple , easy , tasty , wholesome and exotic.Upgrade your traditional sandwich recipe by taking out one slice of bread and serving up some yummy Russian salad as open-faced sandwiches.A popular Russian salad which has over a period of time become the cream of the salad menus. An easy and quick sandwich recipe which can be prepared along with can be savoured as a snack any time of the day since it is refreshing and quite filling.

This is not my own recipe.But I like to share with everyone.

I have been using this recipe for years. It is very simple and has been passed down on my Irish side. This year, I was able to make it using actual ground lamb. There is the debate that if it does not have lamb, then it cannot be called Shepard's Pie. It is actually called Cottage Pie.As with the gravy vs sauce debate among Italian Americans, I could really care less. Make it however you like. I have used real potatoes and fresh peas & carrots. That is the best way to go, but when you are short on time this is perfectly fine. My wife used ground turkey and sweet potato once and it was delicious.Make this recipe your own. For mine, I usual cheat and use frozen peas & carrots and instant mashed potatoes. You can use what you have.Enjoy!

I love one dish cooking when I can everyone loves this dishes when I make it

My entire family loves this. As a matter of fact, at big events I always get volunteered to make a large pot of it. It's easy, and everyone will ask for seconds.

I love Eggplants, and since this recipe is a favorite of mine, I wanted to share it with you. For everyone who loves Eggplants, this is a delicious and simple dish!

Everyone in my house was either sick or getting sick. In my culture we use the soup to kill whatever bug is in our system.

Taco Tuesday. I wanted something different. So I came up with this . 2 of my kids won’t eat the black beans or corn, but I wanted it in mine , so instead of writing two recipes, I just did it this way. Regular taco potatoes sound pretty good too. Everyone in my house loves baked potatoes, and tacos, so win win for everyone.

This is my take on this classic Italian soup. Its hearty and delicious, perfect for cleaning out the veggie drawer in your fridge. Feel free to customize the veggies for whatever you have on hand.

This recipe is easy to make and you don't need fancy ingredients to prepare it.Everyone in my family loved it .

This Spinach and Rice/Vegetarian dish is a quick lunch or dinner meal for the whole family. The main ingredient is Spinach, which is and I also consider to be good for you. The additional ingredients give this dish a spectacular boost of taste. There are two ways that this recipe can be cooked either with tomatoes or just plain olive oil…:) Since both are cooked the exact same way all you need to do is to figure out which taste you enjoy more. 🙂Dipping fresh bread into the tomato sauce, and munching on feta cheese just makes this dish even more tastier. 🙂I wasn’t able to provide pictures for this recipe besides the featured image, because of everything that happened with our beautiful dog Marka’s passing. 😦

This is a great recipe for serving as an Christmas starter as it will easily serve 20 people. As a main meal it serves 8 - 10 and the lovely spices warm your tummy on a cold day. It freezes well too so you can always keep half for another time

Simple way to prepare cauliflower. Everyone loves these.

Garlic is known to heal a variety of ailments, so mama and I call this the healing soup. It is very simple but tastes wonderful when you prepare it this way. Carrots and celery can be added for extra color and flavor, but if you have an upset tummy, simple is best(just noodles,chicken,and garlic,no vegetables).
