Did you know that there is a cuisine style popular in India that is called Indo - Chinese Cuisine. Its a mixture of Indian and Chinese ingredients and cooking methods to produce delicious, a bit spicy dishes. Sesame, honey chili potatoes is one such popular dish. Serve this dish as a starter or even as a snack. Use a good quality vinegar like rice vinegar or cider vinegar.

In a world of store-bought everything (and l appreciate the ease), my pickle journey began as a quest for crunchier, zestier jar-joys. While I appreciate the usual suspects on supermarket shelves, I wanted reinforcements with the brine, and spices and just to get over with my penchant for experimentation.Crafting my own pickles became a creative escape, a dance of flavors in my kitchen. Each jar tells a tale of triumph, satisfaction, and unique customization. It's not just about pickles, it's about savoring the freedom to pickle perfection.

You can make using a pan or oven. The secret is in brining your chops before cooking them. #kenyanlunch

If you are bored of the usual white or yellow rice this is the recipe for you. Plus the vegetable stew is easy to cook and can be eaten with almost anything.

Because I had a lot cucumbers, I decided to try out a new recipe with it.

I was always fascinated by the rich traditions of my Muslim friends, especially during Eid. One of the highlights was the delicious ‘mutton yakhni pulao’ that their families would share with neighbors. The aroma of spices and slow-cooked mutton would fill the air from the night before, creating a sense of celebration and community.During my recent visit to Kenya, the pervasive aroma of Kenyan pilau wafting from the kibandas (food stands) lining the streets at lunchtime felt nostalgic. Kenyans take immense pride in their culinary heritage, eagerly sharing their recipes and techniques at the slightest hint of appreciation. In these mealtime gatherings, laughter, stories, and the bonds of friendship were as abundant as the fragrant spices in the air.‘Mutton yakhni pulao’ and ‘Kenyan pilau’ are slightly distinct aromatic rice dishes. Kenyan pilau is milder in spice, often paired with beef, lamb, chicken, or served vegetarian with a side of kachumbari (tomato salsa). Unlike yakhni pulao, Kenyan pilau stock is not cooked down; rice is added the first time after bringing the stock to a boil (atleast from my observation in a few Kenyan homes I visited)While I have enjoyed both experiences, I tried my luck at 'mutton yakhni pulao,' preserving the tradition of communal meals. I am excited to share this recipe, offering a taste of Eid celebrations and lunchtime gatherings in your own home. And what’s yakhni without a burst of fresh ginger #GlobalApron

More celebration,more snacking. I love the uniqueness n that sweet taste.they are amazingly delicious.

Desire to have own homemade ketchup where I can describe each and every ingredient? This is what I came up with ..Note;I learned you can use whiter sugar and white vinegar (up to 1.5 cups) for a slightly brighter look.Also I’ve learned that tomato variety influences the final color as well

We are mushroom lovers. My girl loves this dish made with mushroom and pasta. Its a quick fix for the children lunch too.

You can make and store this for future use. Comes in handy wen making soups. U can play aroumd with spices. Like adding mixed herbs would surely give a yummy taste.

With tomatoes in season I couldn't resist a good brine, lovely this can sit for around 2 weeks.

This is an all time dish for health living. It can be served for lunch, dinner or as salad with other meals

This is an incredible dish mostly famous in the oriental or Asian culture.It is an artistic combination of french fries with chilli, tomato sauce, honey plus garlic not forgetting some vinegar for a lip-smacking tasty experience.

Dinner rolls are irresistible yummy carbs. They are actually a high contender for the top spot in the tight competition with garlic bread and pretzel twists.They have a buttery exterior, soft and fluffy insides that can be pulled apart effortlessly with a welcoming tasty tender feeling right from the lips.#endofyearchallenge

If I was to eat one meal for the rest of my life, it would be Matoke. I love cooking and enjoying matoke with my family. There are so many ways of preparing matoke , you can just boil or use coconut milk or thrown in meat or any vegetables that you like. Cooking is fun and easy , have fun😘

What do you with leftover or a crumbled cake that cannot be salvaged? Well, cake pops are the answer. Alternatively, you can bake and crumble the cake. You can use any cake you please! It is the perfect treat for kids for any occasion.

letting the chicken boil in it's juices and the spices makes it more flavourful. It was a broiler chicken so there was no need for adding water or oil.

No commercial spices that would reduce the natural flavour of the delicacy

It's Christmas and I'm in the village and would like to prepare a meal for my grandparents but the problem is am addicted to my spices so I have to come up with a recipe that will leave them wanting more without using processed spices. So I cooked this meal with alot of love for my grandparents and the relatives with alcers.

This is a white version of the black forest so no cocoa or dark chocolate here only white chocolate

Once you boil your eggs they are cut in half, remove yolks and mix them with different ingredients like mayonnaise, mustard and the paste is then stuffed back onto the egg white #boiledsnacks

Fish Biriani is not your ordinary biriani. It's Amazingly delicious, a hearty meal for the whole family.

# saladcontest#You can have salad as a meal or as a side salad with any other meal.

Since Goat meat is so tender it's a better choice but you could use any, it might just needs tendering. The lemon helps balance the sweet taste of the honey but you could use white vinegar.

My mum comes from the central part of kenya where they have very delicious nduma. She would boil them and we would take them with tea for breakfast. I twisted the recipe to fit my own taste by deep frying them. This way you can serve it as a starch in a main meal or have them for breakfast.

January has a way of humbling us Waah, I can't even remember the last time I prepared soup pack. If you craving chicken and you are broke just go to the supermarket and buy soup pack they go for ksh. 250 (huwa umetolewa tunyama) and just as delicious as whole chicken. Enjoy

What is a gazpacho? Traditionally a gazpacho is a Spanish cold soup made from tomatoes, peppers and other salad vegetables. However, with modern times, food too has become modern and its exciting to try out recipes that are not traditional. Watermelon is in season and sometimes its good to enjoy this delicious fruit in a different manner other than juices, in fruit salads or as ice lollies.
