Coconut Chickpea Curry


I fell in love with chickpeas the first time I made them and served with rice. So today I decided to cook chickpea curry that is full of coconut taste and aroma. So DELICIOUS! Apart from its delicious nature, chickpeas are filled with nutrients like protein which is vital for our body's growth. This chickpea curry is both gluten free and dairy free so its perfect for Vegans or vegetarians. Both coconut milk and oil add a tropical yummy taste and aroma to this curry dish. Served hot with naan, rice or chapati, its perfect to share with family and friends over a cold winter night.

Kuku Kienyeji Stew


Kuku kienyeji/Kienyeji chicken is free range or organic chicken that is usually more delicious than broilers or layers. It has always been a tradition that whenever we go upcountry to visit our grandma she always packs for us a chicken or two. Either a live chicken or one that has been dried on an open fire. That is why I always look foward to going for those visits because of getting that kuku kienyeji. Back in town, there are vendors who sell organic chicken, which normally is more expensive than broilers or layers. Kuku kienyeji has a much darker flesh that gets an intense flavour after cooking. With this kienyeji chicken, you do not need to add too many ingredients or even spices because its totally delicious with basic add ins.
