[@micaellatk2069]

I love how this page includes african cultures !! Keep it up!

[@minaa.1984]

Great content! Just btw - kontomire is actually coco yam leaves ( the greens for a starch grown in Ghana). Spinach is typical diasporan replacement in Kontomire stew but it’s not the same thing.

[@maamethediamondbosumtwe2812]

Thank you!

[@kurapikakurta3863]

OMG I just googled what coco yam leaves are and here in the Philippines they're called dahon ng gabi (taro leaves) we usually dry them and cook it in coconut milk and coconut cream and it's one of my favorite dishes (we call it laing). I will definitely try out Kontomire stew. By the way I'm half Ghanaian and half Filipino and to learn that both cultures cook the similarl ingredient is so cool to me. And no spinach is no where near the taste of taro leaves.

[@Eurowuzhere]

Yo I love being black. My family is from Guyana. We does call bofro fry bakes! It's literally the same. There's also a dry version that doesn't use oil. So good!

[@syncdpilates]

my fam is from Barbados and we call it the same!

[@laylah150]

my family is from somalia. we have the same thing. we call it buur. we fry it. we mostly eat it during Ramadan. it's a great way to break your fast, esp with dates

[@Eurowuzhere]

@@laylah150 I've never had it with fruit. That sounds delicious

[@laylah150]

@@Eurowuzhere my family also has samosa with it as well🤤🤤. the sweetness of the dates and the savoury-ness of the buur + samosa. it's also big in neighbouring Swahili culture too.

[@Empress87]

This is kinda like pholourie🇹🇹 the way it's being added to the oil

[@globisdead]

Your mom and sister is so cute! Well done!

[@RavenLarai]

I love how both of them liked everything

[@pantomimegoose]

This was so good and educational! More videos need to put a spotlight on recipes from African cultures. I think the fact that there were so many ingredients most Americans have never heard of shows how important these kinds of videos are.

[@itsciceslife2289]

For the people that want to make the spinach stew, make sure you cook the egusi very well or you will be sitting on the toliet after u eat🤣🤣(note: you don’t have to add the egusi if you don’t want too)

[@annyms5092]

God bless, Jesus loves you and died for you all

[@ruffey1748]

Good tip! 😆 I don't add egusi as I've not had it before, and it's hard to find where I live.

[@ohemaaafia9875]

[@upcyclesarah7439]

Those recipes look great and I know she got a big uptick of confidence with her mom and sis liking it so much. Her mom seems like that kind of woman you wouldn't dare disrespect. But at the same time give the best hugs that I can make you cry. So I'm going to tell you guys something that once you see it you can't unsee it. I think that you look like you could be Kevin Hart's sister dude. Straight up. This is a light-hearted fun video to watch.

[@brownbbydoll1777]

Thank you for sharing the beautiful and unique cuisine of west Africa . Everything you made looks super delicious and the presentation was very gorgeous 👏🏾💕

[@fatyma_zahra]

I love Ghanaian culture! These recipes looked amazing!

[@rashidagh3530]

The bofrot turned out good, I sensed it was runny. Mi y3 Ghana ni (Am a Ghanaian) Edit: the sauce that comes with the yam is called *meko* pronounced as 'm3-co' You did a great job 👍

[@yara1896]

The beignet (bofrot) is normally runny

[@impishishere]

Kontomire without palm oil?? Ei! The rest look good though!

[@kojo9228]

Palm oil production is actually very unsustainable and leads to deforestation. People are beginning to stay away from palm oil or products containing palm oil unless it has been sourced ethically and sustainably.

[@davidboat8467]

@@kojo9228 I hear you and agree......it’s delicious though right?!

[@MuslimahRajaa]

@@kojo9228 palm oil has always been sustainable in local African communities, it becomes unsustainable when forests in Southeast Asia are cut down to make way for palm trees. The problem is not with palm oil, it’s the production in many SE Asian countries.

[@brainsandbeautyra]

Right, I need my palm oil.

[@mssghee.2413]

At my home We normally make it without palm oil. We found it that it’s tastier without it. But we definitely use it with our Abom dishes

[@willowclementine]

I could watch her cook all day from her personality to her culture she’s so entertaining and relatable!

[@quitaphillips]

I want to try the red snapper recipe! Thanks for sharing!

[@shirleycastle5170]

Those dishes looked yummy. Looking forward to your next video.

[@JAllen-tx3di]

I’m going to try making the stew and snapper! I’m African American and have never tasted but your enthusiasm and taste test approval from mom and sister makes me wanna do it! The steps and ingredients seem easy enough to do and there’s no spicy stuff so I’m sure I’ll love it.

nkontomire is the leaf of the cocoyam plant, very similar to taro leaf, not spinach (though spinach is a decent substitute flavourwise)

[@bassya2490]

As a ghanaian i never had fried yams with snapper....it’s usually with tilapia! but the snapper looks good

[@fynlilmama]

Hop on snapper. Very delicious. I only have fried yam with it. Yum!

@@minerva_appiah Yeah, we call it groundnut in Ghana, but it's made with what a lot of places call peanuts right?

[@ChristeneDelacruz2014]

I wonder if the spoon can work with the donuts. I don't think I can do that hand thing. It might turn out into a cactus or something.

[@ghdancestar]

She wasn't able to do it because she made it too watery. The mixture is supposed to be kind of thick and stretchy; that makes it so easy do it with your hand or ice cream scoop

[@toBe8ere]

What type of yam is that? It looks like cassava root/yucca to me. Also, that fish recipe looked so juicy and flavorful! Could someone tell me what it's called? Should I just google Ghanian-style red snapper recipe?

It’s west African Yam, we eat cassava too but that’s not what she had in the video.
