This beautiful woman brought tears to my eyes with her genuineness of expression in explaining not only the dish, but the customs going along with it as well as the doll and comments about her dear mom and early learning. Much love to you, Anna, you touched my heart!

[@KanezaMac]

Senegalese women will always have a special place in my heart. I grew there in my youth; I’ve always looked up to them . ❤️

[@annasagna6930]

Thank you

[@RARA-ek3yp]

The best and most faithful Yassa recipe on the internet !

[@Isoken101]

Senegaleise...peaceful loving people. Though I'm a Nigeian, but Senegal is my second home in Africa. I love their people, they are kind to strangers.

[@NthenyasDiary]

You’re absolutely stunning! Thank you for the little cultural tidbits and lessons.

[@anniemichelon9252]

Je connais bien le Sénégal où je me rendais très souvent à une époque. Bien sûr votre cuisine est un vrai délice, les poissons, crevettes et langoustes ne sont pas rares sur la côte. Je me suis régalée des bons produits locaux et de la gentillesse des gens. Inutile de vous dire que j'adore le thiebou dien, votre plat national ! Je trouve sa préparation compliquée tout de même. Une amie le faisait devant moi, et c'est un tour de main à prendre. Mais c'était sympa de le manger tous ensemble, autour du grand plat ! Vraiment, je garde des souvenirs émus de votre pays et de sa teranga. Merci pour la recette et de tous les détails donnés sur votre pays !

[@combe4823]

c vraiment sympa de votre part d'y penser comme ça.

[@annasagna6930]

Thank you, Dieureudieuf, merci, Gracias, danke, to all. The original receipe doesn’t call for mustard but you all know that cooking is also following your inspiration and use your favorite spices , I usually keep the old fashion way😘😘😘 much love.

Merci pour la recette! jeredief! I lived in Senegal for over 3 years and I have good memories of the Senegalese cooking but also loved the Senegalese people. Yassa poulet was my favorite dish so I am planning to make the recipe tonight (it will bring out good memories from Senegal).

[@cwcafetoday]

Thank you for sharing this wonderful chicken recipe. I have so much to learn your style of cooking.

[@OyaRevolutionary]

I'm married to a Gambian & that's how I learnt Yassa, but it is the same delicous! In fact I say that Senegalese & Gambia are the best cooks in West Africa & although I love my Mama's food (Nigerian) I say give me Gambian food any time!

[@cass75]

Senegalese food is so good

You can fry the chicken until it's brown if you don't have a grill then sauté the onions and add your chicken etc.

[@jenthomas1448]

[@bantuchick5762]

lovely lady :) merci pour la recette facile. j'ai grandi au Gabon et la voisine une maman Sénégalaise nous vendait du poulet yassa.

[@curbsideseat9794]

J'avais un ami du Sénégal qui m'a présente ce plat et il me préparait souvent ce plat et me regardait le dévorer. J'adore ce plat merci du partage.

[@sassytela]

She reminds me so much of my Senegalese auntie, she's moved back to Senegal now 😭💔

[@hunclemike]

Lovely woman, lovely recipe, I enjoyed the video, the recipe, and the result. I love how food connects us all, connects our spirit, connect us all at the table.

Thank you sister for the recipe. You made me happy, just watching your video. God Bless.

[@kumbakuyateh_mansajali4817]

I really love how easy you make the cooking "Yassa Ginarr" as we normally call it. And i also love your presentation. I am a Gambian and I was brought up in Senegal. Gambia and Senegal are almost the same. We share the same culture. The only difference is our official languages. English for Gambia and French for Senegal. Love you aunty (Tata).

[@Chinieyou]

owhhh i'm very happy to see this video with this awesome woman!! i'm a senegalese too but i speak english just a little! i just wanna say i'm very proud when i hear your explications about the doll and "lekett" or when u use our tradinationally ustensile for mix garlic! a real senegalese thing! thanks to you MAMA AFRICA! you look like a very peaceful and sympatic person! thank you this look like deliouciouus miiaam lol! bon appetit :)

[@khalifadiop4520]

Very Nice senegalaise food thanks sister

[@Metoobie]

Nangadef! Love this dish! I used to live in Dakar, near Ouakam. The Casamance is beautiful! Merci! I personally don't use the oil, as it prevents the lemon from sticking as well to the chicken. I do add green olives to the entire process, including the marinade. Just a small suggestion.. at 3:15 ; never taste a raw chicken marinade?

[@Mandinko23]

kaldou is my favorite childhood dish i love my cousins kaldou. i usually fry the chicken then fry the onion and they ferir everything then add water and let it boil

[@lxxuxn5836]

I’m gonna make this at my house this weekend. Recently I found out my family is from Senegal so~

[@Topofthetopapex]

[@razmighovaghimian2064]

Love the garlic :) Lots of garlic

[@valentmichelle364]

Thank for this video.To Amalialove after the marinade you can bake it or do a barbecue which i highly recommande I also add some green olives and dijon mustard to my Yassa . There is also the Senegalese gelo rice which is one of the best but actually all Senegalese 's foods are good but mind the calories if on Diet i know what I am talking about .Peace to all

[@KurlsKinkiesNHair]

[@bettylovesblooms]

Thank you! It looks delicious!

[@mizzhadassa322]

Senegalese food is awesome! 

[@amitakardashian1768]

I'm from Mali. I really like Yassa. I went to senegal in 2004 to know more about how the slaves were isolated at "Ile de Goree" I really learned many things over there. Also I wish you make a video on how to make Tchebou cause i really really like it. ;)

[@OUMZDABBZ]

[@bikazful]

Really interesting video Anna, I did really appreciate it . However I am a bit confused about the grilling part. I mean at what temperature do I have to adjust the oven and also how long do I have to leave it in the oven? Thank you

[@MrsAnniPeace]

Thank you so much. This woman is so lovely 😩😍

[@rosechild5021]

This lady look so lovely and kind.

[@tabathacobble1016]

I would just like to know for this video was the chicken baked or grilled? did you caramelize the onions after and then put them on top of the chicken?

[@turfusane4398]

Bonjour Dommage que nous ne voyons pas toute l'étape de la recette. Merci quand même !

[@abloslimshady]

what is the title of the music at the end ?

[@alexandriahatten2167]

it looks so good yummy

[@auyanne1]

j adoreeeee!

[@ethereal1257]

Thank you for the video, I love that you added the stories, I love hearing these kinds of things. That is what makes it unique and special. I want to ask is there another way you can cook this besides grilling. I live in an apartment which doesnt allow bbq grills. This dish looks incredible. Did you carmelize in a saute pan? I wish you could show the cooking part. Please keep coming with the videos. You look absolutely beautiful and I love your smile. :)

[@kollegs101]

You can use your oven like I do. Not much difference

[@hybris159]

Thank you very much !! Nice !!

[@shirowapk]

your so pleasant to watch....it looks yummy

[@Islndsmama]

I want to try this thank u for the video you are a beautiful lady inside and out !

[@amalialovesicecream]

Dear Anna, thx for sharing a bit of your country! I am lost: after the marinade, what do you do? Broil/bbq the chicken separately and the onion mixture with the marinade you cook in a skillet then mix together?

[@cynthiaguede5592]

Combien de temps de cuisson au barbecue ?
