I’ve researched countless _authentic_ African cooking channels & none were convincing … until I saw THIS! 😮‍💨 Hoooo, she has my tastes, a chef after my own heart-not afraid to FRY; not afraid of SPICY peppers; and not afraid of OIL! 👏👏 This is the FIRST African dish I’m making, and she’s right: it looks BEAUTIFUL!! As soon as I learn to make GREAT JOLLOF (hopefully from HER ☝️), my crystal ball shows me the best fall/winter dish EVER! 👌🤟👍👍👍

I am from Germany but my roots are in Iran. I just adore your food recipes. ❤Today I will cook chicken stew for me and my friends. 🤤

[@lisaramirez7834]

How was it!?

[@sopuluchiegbo7065]

Thank you so much for sharing this recipe: 1. Roasting of tomatoes and others 2. Don’t grill hard chicken (I am guilty of this and always wonder why they are usually harder afterwards, oh my goodness 🤦‍♀️🙆‍♀️) 3. Adding onions and others in the oil before frying 4. Splatter guard (was wondering what that thing is called and why use it - there, you called the name and explained). You are simply amazing, thumps up ma’am

[@PressPowerPlay]

I learned so much from this video!

I believe this chicken you all call hard chicken is common fowl chicken??? A chicken that's raised at home without hormones etc

I made this and same way with my jellof rice, honestly after doing it I was just too proud of myself, it came out so delicious and looks so beautiful too, thank you so much for the free tutorial, I personally appreciate you so much, my best food channel, I love you sisi ❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️💯

[@surayyaaahmed481]

Kook lull

[@stavoa2217]

Thanks Sisi Jemimah!! I did it and it came out perfect! While roasting the Tomatoes/Peppers I sprinkled some salt and bullion powder to them. Oh boy! I actually ate some after I was done roasting. 😅😅 Everything came out perfect! For those who complained about too much oil, u will need that much oil trust me. Else, your tomatoes/Peppers ain’t gonna fry. I started with moderate oil, before I knew I had to pour more than enough oil inside cuz the paste was splashing all over the place since the oil wasn’t enough. During frying since there was less to moderate oil, the thick paste boiled and splashed oil over (Splatter Screen was not helpful under such circumstances). So the best option is go with a lot of oil and drain it out once u done. Exactly what I did. After draining the oil out, it looked like I had had moderate oil inside from the beginning... That roasted Aroma is fire 🔥...

[@lake9980]

Oh, so more oil prevents splashing? My stew was splashing like a water fountain and it infuriated me so much!

[@stavoa2217]

@@lake9980 Yeah more oil stops the splashing. I felt the same way..
