An Australian abroad, I regularly cook potjie in the northern hemisphere autumn weekends. But this looks like a regular weekday tasty treat. Presented brilliantly. Thanks
Ohh woww! I didn’t know our Tswana (Botswana) neighbours also cook this dish. What do you call this dish in Botswana? 😊 it’s interesting how quite a lot of the Eastern/Southern African countries share similar cuisine. But then again history tells us the Tswana (Botswana) 🇧🇼 are originally from the Bantu Tribe just like most Zimbabweans 🇿🇼 I also recently learned they make this very dish in Kenya 🇰🇪 too (also Bantu origin). Thank you for sharing @boldpicturesgarderners it’s interesting you call the (porridge) shadza, and in Zim Shona language we call it (sadza) the words sound similar too. Proof we’re definitely more related as Africans than we realise right 😅. Thank you for watching and taking the time to comment! 👏👏
1:06 That's exactly like Swahili. We say kukaanga nyama to mean the same thing. In Kenya, we cook a similar meat & green vegetable dish & serve it with ugali which is a firmer version of sadza. Im going to try your recipe.
That’s very interesting to hear this .. Swahili and Shona words are almost identical I know other words and phrases that are also the same. Thank you for sharing. I’m quite amazed how a lot of us Africans seem to have more in common than we realise and we also unknowingly have recipes like these in different countries- would be interesting to learn how this happened in the history we share. This proves how much more related we are as a people. May we continue to grow and learn together as a United Africa! Best wishes with our recipe when you do try it, let me know how you get on. I’m also interested in trying your Kenyan Ugali, I’ll find a recipe here on UA-cam and will also be trying this :)
Thank you so much … and welcome to the channel! I hope you and your husband enjoy the recipes and you find the videos here helpful, good luck making all the foods for your husband from his homeland. If you have any questions on the recipes/ingredients just ask. Always happy to help! 😊
@@BilyaletdinoMaphosa Wowww you got me emotional with this very thoughtful, generous and kind comment/compliment 🥹🥰 This channel is very much a passion project that’s very close to my heart. It warms my heart you’re enjoying the videos. Thank you so much and stay connected .. 😊❤️
Hey there.. yes definitely also good with spinach 💯 you’ve just reminded me I will definitely recreate/film this recipe with spinach too! Thank you so much for watching and taking the time to comment! 💕
My ex husband is Liberian so I cook a lot of different dishes from that region. I’m excited to learn to cook more dishes from the Morherland. I thank you 🙏🏾
That’s wonderful to know, thank you for watching … you’re most welcome. Enjoy the videos and if you ever have any questions about the recipes, just ask 🙏🏾💕
Great!!! 😊 It all depends with the cut of beef you’re using they all cook differently time wise. You can use any beef cut for this recipe just make sure you cook the beef until it’s very tender and well cooked, then you add the seasoning and veggies to finish off as I did in the video. Any further questions just ask. Hope you and your husband enjoy the recipe, good luck!
@@GellySibanda-o4o I did not boil the meat first with any additional water because usually the meat already has its own water weight so I just started by frying it with a bit of cooking oil this way we can get all the beef flavour through browning the meat, the water weight is then released from the meat during this frying stage. Depending on the cut of beef, you can add more water at this stage so as to cook through the meat properly or you can allow the meat to cook through with its own water before frying again …. This is what I did here.
😅 We absolutely use garlic and pepper here .. recipes do evolve isn’t that a wonderful thing? Thank you for watching and asking questions that matter lol 👏😊
Garlic and pepper have been a staple in my Zimbabwean home for 34 years of my life. In fact, all my extended family members also use these ingredients often in their cooking.
Aww 😊 that’s amazing!! We are truly related in more ways than we realise hey .. I’m aware that Kenyans 🇰🇪 and Zimbabweans 🇿🇼 both originate from the Bantu Tribe, and we share very striking similarities in some of our native languages Swahili and Shona in particular. Thank you for watching!! 👏🏾😊
