Exactly, love at the banquet ground, just thinking about a lavish setting and the people at the lavish table of much delicacies, sitting there in plush chairs and can’t stand one another.
About 50 years ago, in Panaji, Goa, India: A Group of young African students were checking out the market place, when one of the girls shouted out in excitement when she saw that tapioca was available. Laughing, crying and chatting away, promptly planned to cook those dishes they had missed for years! The boys among them were lucky to be invited to the cookout! From that day onwards their spirits were lifted! Some days later one of the boys offered me raw crushed tiny bits of tapioca, which was a regular snack during their childhood days! I was warned only to taste a few bits and chew very carefully, judging that I would not have the acquired ability to digest it! It was nice knowing my African friends!
I love your comment! If elders have pain and can't sit down on the floor because it's harder to get back up, where do they take their food if they want to eat together with the rest of the family?
@@gsg421 yep, as a bengali that's the thing which caught my attention too. both cooking and eating on banana leaves. and also the mat she put for searing. we have the same thing here
Here in the Philippines we use banana leaf to put our food too especially when we have no water supply for doing the dishes and other household stuffs.
I never thought about how eating with your hands and from organic materials can actually be useful for saving on water when it's scarce, that's fascinating. Thanks for sharing the knowledge
@@valeryasteel4167 How would eating with your hands save on water. It's more the opposite. Especially in those areas it's not so healthy to skip cleaning your hands. There are some nasty worms you shouldn't ingest. Banan leaves might be okay as long as they have been heated aswell.
does the bana plant has a certain taste that can transfer to the food? I know some cultures make dishes with plant leaves wrapped with fillings. so I'm curious if the flavour is transferable :)
Native American envy- I wish our communities still had access to being able to eat our traditional foods communally. Especially my reservation being so small but right in the middle of everything, everything is so modernized and often unhealthy. When I watch your videos sharing your beautiful culture, it reminds me of how much was taken from my community. I'm glad I get to enjoy your beautiful Lunch time meal from a distance!
You start it, host a lunch once a month or on whatever days or events are sacred and limit people to only bring traditional food. Hopefully it'll get picked up as a result
I truly hope soon you get your land back. I often think about how terrible colonialism has affected not just my people (Africans) but your as well. Your land will be free someday
I work at a large US university and we have a day where all of the international students make food from their countries. The African counties ALWAYS have the best food. Wish I could go visit and eat it in Africa.
Most countries were until the Europeans took it and colonialized everything . African tribes have beautiful traditions. I’m from Puerto Rico and we sort of have a little bit of African traditions mixed in lol. So beautiful.
@@nevaehb2279 It sounds like you're bringing in blame towards Europeans when there was no need for that. To me it kind of gives a holier than thou feeling as well.
I went from wanting to live a luxurious modern life but once I came to such an environment I realized that I actually appreciate where I come from. My childhood was one of the best ones especially when I visited my (now late) grandma at the village often,
Indian and African culture are so similar 😭❤ we also eat on banana leaf with our hands. I hope that someday I'll get to try African food, it looks so delicious, lots of love from India ♡
What you mean with that 😅... havin food at lunch at a table its not goin to lose culture if you eatin seated at a table safe from germs on the ground that's why into restaurants all over the world do that... even in India or Africa doin that today .. this is village life not the culture of Africa or any other countries...every cultures in the world had this stage of havin lunch on the ground or on rocks no one was born with tables and chairs,spoons

As an Indian I confirm, sitting down and eating with your hand is so much more satisfying and dignified. :/ Why should only Western etiquette are supposed to be seen as dignified and better
Whos said "only Western etiquette is seen better" ? Ive never heard that. I think its natural that a world as big as it is, that there are different ways of life. Not necessarily better/worse, just different.
I hate living in the west sometimes. I believe we should all be living like this still. A simple meal with your loved ones outside in nature, with our feet on the earth. Beautiful 🌏

@@Thehouseoffail I guess it is more "simple" in the sense of "involving less of expensive resources, waste and complicated tech to achieve the same basic things as others". But as every good programmer knows: Simple code is often the best and most difficult to achieve, so there is nothing bad or unskilled about achieving simplicity, often the very opposite is true: It takes skill and effort to make the result look simple or easy. Outside programming, the same applies to many parts of life, be it delicious meals, music or other things.
@Heroesflorian I think you and I view this video in the same way. However, that feels like a patronizing and extremely western ethnocentric definition of "simple."
@@Thehouseoffail Yes, I know what you mean... I guess people often associate "simple" with "primitive" or "naive" or "inferior". With those associations: Yes, definitely, it's patronizing and kind of condescending. With different associations for the term "simple" (like "elegant", "efficient", ...), it is a bit different though. And of course, another important factor is referring to it as "simple" specifically (and only) in terms of technology/resource use, while being aware that this doesn't imply it being "simple" in terms of difficulty or required skills - in that regard, e.g. cooking on some electricity-based induction stove may be the considerably more "simple" way of preparing lunch: It requires less skill and thinking from the user at the cost of using more technology and resources. Thus, it is important to keep in mind "people working with simple technology/tools" does not at all equal "simple-minded people" or anything along those lines. Often even the opposite. Such distinctions are, sadly, very often swept aside for the sake of "simplicity" (what irony!) of (Western) people not wanting to bother with thinking about a topic for more than two seconds and rather coming up with stupid and wrong stereotypes of "simple-minded, primitive people" instead.
We have something like this in South India. It is called sangati in telugu (Andhra Pradesh), made by boiled rice and ragi flour (finger millet) cooked together. They are rolled like balls like in the video and eaten with gravies (Ragi balls).
I love seeing people eat together! We never really did it as a family growing up, save for Sunday dinners. Even those stopped though. It’s really a special act!
Why so special? Its just eating, there are other ways to spend time with the family. Not everyone eats at the same time even in your own family, some people work while you are sleeping so they eat separate. You can still enjoy time with family by making a family day walk or activity scheduled. Also not all family members can be together at the same time, people can not always gather all together at once.
@@itstheLittleThings9 No need to over complicate it. They’re just saying that eating together as a family is a special act to them PERSONALLY because it’s a rare occurrence in their family.
And Americans complain because they have to cook on an electric or a gas stove. This woman cooks like this every day with love. God bless her and her family.
I wish majority of my people in Haiti would stop wanting to be like the westerners and go back to appreciating the simple life. It is destroying them for not appreciating like you beautiful people do.😥
It takes education. You are right it might be good for Hatians to live more simply because they do not have financial resources but they do have enough land and rain to survive but they need education to treat the land better, conserve the trees and rotate crops so green things can grow better.

He who does not work, does not eat. Thank you for showing us how to make a simple meal with peace and a warm heart, and no "gadgets."

Oh my goodness, this reminds me of home and I am feeling very home sick right now. You can take a girl out of Africa, but you can't take Africa out of the girl. Thank you for sharing this beautiful video my sister, stay blessed.
Africa has 54 countries, 7500 cities with 2000 languages… Where exactly you want to go??? Start studying! Every place is different here. Africa is not a country.
I am fully aware that Africa is a continent! Saying I want to visit Africa is much like saying I want to visit the US or America, you could mean a particular state, but when you say America, you might mean Canada, USA, Mexico, Central or South America. Okay, my friends?🫶🏼
Can you imagine all the goodness being infused into that food from the leaves. Anthing not eaten can go back into the earth. Barely any rubbish to dispose of too, so much better for the earth. The sun shining , eating together as a family, living the simple life. Sister you are blessed! Living my dream life there....im stuck here in england wishing i could live a life like yours....dont listen to the haters, you have the riches ❤
Not for long. Once the corporations finish stripping the land for monetary gain, and squeeze us into smaller and smaller spaces, this will be a luxury in 1 or 2 generations time...we are having our rights to nature, clean air, water etc taken from us.
@@plutonium2 her whole channel actively works to debunk negative images of Africa. Like legit I never ever see a family get together and have a meal in a healthy beautiful setting in the media. The only time I see an African woman or child on TV is when it’s a poor mother holding her almost dead child who is deathly thin. I’m not saying these issues don’t exist but man the fact that we ONLY see that side in the mainstream leads to ingrained stereotypes that we are raised with. I obviously knew the entire continent wasn’t destitute but literally until social media I never saw positive “normal” “mundane” moments of African families
@@_beep_boop_ no you’re right. So fascinating and depressing. One of my closest friends is Ethiopian and her stories about village life make me so JEALOUS. But she’s also a doctor in a beautiful home here. I think because I made a similar journey (from Ireland not Africa I should add but plenty of nonsense ideas about us, too!) and to me those two sides to a person are so normal. But you’re right. Sadly there are countries and continents others can’t absorb. I live in Australia now and Americans regularly ask about the animals like we have kangaroos running down the streets and wombats in our garden.
Guess it was a bird that recorded and uploaded this clip? Family time and offline life is very neglected, and it is terrible for people and society. But it's about finding a balance, like this lady. Utilizing technology when it is beneficial, but not centering it. Just declaring "phones bad" and "no tech good" is overly simplistic and just ends up sounding like a Boomer yelling at clouds.
i mean i dunno how this video was taking right? magic uploaded to internet by magic? these comments crack me up how exactly do you know they have no tv???because you didn't see one haha
Ngl looks like tamales, we make them on a pan in the UK, but in guatemala we had the proper equipment and we cooked it in a comal, traditionally they are wrapped in leaves that add flavour.
In Italy we call It:"Polenta", but we Cook the flour in hot salted water and we eat It directly before It became full solid, with meat, fish or vegetable.
Wow fascinating. I didn't know that you had this in Italy. Some countries make it thick and where i come from its not so thick and we eat it with different relish, beef, vegetable, chicken etc
M.from.India, n why this looks little similar to our traditional food ?? 😅😅 we make such thing with maze flour n garlic n green chilly, it tastes so damn awesome❤❤
One of the beauties of our continent is that as a Mozambican I am familiarized with what is portrayed in the video. There are some differences but a lot of similarities. We are a community ❤
Adding to the previous commenter: In Uganda they call it Posho. It’s eaten with some kind of sauce (generally that is often how food works in UG: some kind of carbohydrate with a sauce). I believe they are eating beans as a sauce in the video!

He who does not work, does not eat. Thank you for showing us how to make a simple meal with peace and a warm heart, and no "gadgets."
I'm from the South Pacific Islands and in my country we cook our food in and wrap our food in a similar manner with banana leaves. This made me think of my island home❤
I'm still Supriya by how she's able to switch between the two worlds and looks so at ease and competent with her African background. I remove hat 👒 for you, African princess ❤
She’s on the internet, though. Just because she/they have retained some of their traditional lifestyle doesn’t mean they’re primitive and have not adapted.
Is because she is not ashamed of who she is and she is content with being herself
@@lolitafalana as an African living in Africa, I know what primitive looks like and what adaptation looks like. I know why I appreciate her seamless transitions
Looks so good! And it’s nice with to see a family eating together ❤️
Omg those huge leaves are so neat, I love seeing the way food is made around the world
Please show more like this!!! Thankyou for the glimpse into your culture!! ❤❤😊😊
I love these is so wholesome and satisfiying to see other people cooking and eating
Could you make some more videos like this? Like share traditional recipes or traditional outfits and what the pieces represent in your culture. I love your videos and I would love to learn more about your language, people and culture.
yes plz
This right here!!!
Recipes plz
Ooo yess I love videos like that!
This has made me feel homesick. Reminds me of my late parents.❤
I would be a very happy, thankful person sitting together with them and having a meal.
❤❤❤🇩🇪❤❤❤
Love this! I would actually be interested in watching longer videos. I’m so curious about the different flavors and ingredients. More than will fit on the short video. Thank you for sharing pieces of your culture.
Que bella señora, con su familia. Que bonito es ver a la familia unida siempre juntos. Dios les bendiga siempre 🙏
It feels like having picnic time with family while enjoying greenery and fresh air. I bet this will be such a good memory when everyone growing older. Thank u for giving us how life is from different side of this world.
Oh my the sweetness of this Posho aka Ugali. Just the Aroma
Can you tell me more about this food?
Specially ugali na mboga za kienyeji
Mwana gwe the aroma!
Posho aka ugali
Having family time… family that cooks togther , eat togther stays happy
Nice to see you all are still keeping up your traditions and religion
Africans be like :: In africa we have gas ⛽️ but we prefer these !!!!!!!!!!!!!!😂😂😭
Oh my goodness, this reminds me of home and I am feeling very home sick right now. You can take a girl out of Africa, but you can't take Africa out of the girl. Thank you for sharing this beautiful video my sister, stay blessed.
when all you have is yours, from nowhere else, and enjoying it with the sense of belonging. not only watching but feeling it. love from Somalia
My family and I ate at an Ethiopian restaurant not too long ago, the food was delicious, they too, eat with their hands... it was wonderful
So many similarities to South Indians- the mat, the green banana leaf, seated on ground, eating with hands, boiled rice- long live our humble culture
Because dravidians came from africa and retained the culture
So pure, so natural, one with the earth.Because they are part of the earth.❤❤❤💯💯
I love this. I love authentic African tradition. Just like our African ancestors.
Such a beautiful country. Please tell me what's being cooked. I don't know anything about your wonderful food.
Omg..my kids would starve if I had to do this. God bless these women for their strength..love...beauty. You are amazing!!!!
Honestly I’d love to come to your village to visit. Everything looks so natural and refreshing! Thank you for sharing your culture with us!
Uganda 🇺🇬🇺🇬🇺🇬🇺🇬🇺🇬🇺🇬 my country

I would absolutely cherish a week in this setting. Seems so refreshing
I need a year 😂 in this setting
I love your content! You have taught me a lot of cool, admirable and amazing things. I love that you guys value community 💕
Fully organic,no chemicals best food.
And zero waste
Lmao you would believe that wouldn’t you.
@@bdee1084 what
Everything is a chemical
uh what? you don't know that lol
I want to visit Africa, our homeland, someday. ❤
Africa has 54 countries, 7500 cities with 2000 languages… Where exactly you want to go??? Start studying! Every place is different here. Africa is not a country.
I hope you're are aware that Africa is a continent and not a country. Not all African countries are this backward.
I am fully aware that Africa is a continent! Saying I want to visit Africa is much like saying I want to visit the US or America, you could mean a particular state, but when you say America, you might mean Canada, USA, Mexico, Central or South America. Okay, my friends?🫶🏼
I just love how they all eat together in the same leaf😊❤
Can you imagine all the goodness being infused into that food from the leaves. Anthing not eaten can go back into the earth. Barely any rubbish to dispose of too, so much better for the earth. The sun shining , eating together as a family, living the simple life. Sister you are blessed! Living my dream life there....im stuck here in england wishing i could live a life like yours....dont listen to the haters, you have the riches ❤
Not for long. Once the corporations finish stripping the land for monetary gain, and squeeze us into smaller and smaller spaces, this will be a luxury in 1 or 2 generations time...we are having our rights to nature, clean air, water etc taken from us.
Legit this channel is single handedly destroying so many ingrained stereotypes I had about Africa. One of my favourites on this platform 🙌
One pleasant video doesn't speak for the whole of Africa either. That's willful ignorance.
What stereotypes are being busted by this video? Honestly curious
@@plutonium2 her whole channel actively works to debunk negative images of Africa. Like legit I never ever see a family get together and have a meal in a healthy beautiful setting in the media. The only time I see an African woman or child on TV is when it’s a poor mother holding her almost dead child who is deathly thin. I’m not saying these issues don’t exist but man the fact that we ONLY see that side in the mainstream leads to ingrained stereotypes that we are raised with. I obviously knew the entire continent wasn’t destitute but literally until social media I never saw positive “normal” “mundane” moments of African families
@@brutalhonesty8134 no shit.
@@_beep_boop_ no you’re right. So fascinating and depressing. One of my closest friends is Ethiopian and her stories about village life make me so JEALOUS. But she’s also a doctor in a beautiful home here. I think because I made a similar journey (from Ireland not Africa I should add but plenty of nonsense ideas about us, too!) and to me those two sides to a person are so normal. But you’re right. Sadly there are countries and continents others can’t absorb. I live in Australia now and Americans regularly ask about the animals like we have kangaroos running down the streets and wombats in our garden.
These are the best meals! Reminds me of my childhood. We ate like this sometimes on Saturdays.
I was thinking “do they cook outside during the winter?” and then realized my mistake.
😂😂😂😂 no winter in africa
We have rainy season and dry season 😂
Village life where my whole story begins ❤❤
I will NEVER respect the process of anyone’s cooking as much as these blessed people 💪🏻😎🙏🏼..
That looks simple but delicious. Exactly my kind of food. 😃 Hope I get the chance to try one day
What is it? It looks tasty.
Beautiful people cooking beautiful food!
No chemicals , natural food . Living close to nature . How lucky are these people . 😊❤
I would love to visit Africa one day 🩷
From scratch...🔥❤
Just love it❤
So natural n good,great job
Is it ugali ? I made an internship in Kenya during one mounth and its was soooo magical 🥰
Yes its ugali
Must be amongst some of the most resourceful people in the world.
We love Indians too.. very noble people. Thank you for being beautiful and warm to all.
No tv, no cell phones. Just family bonding.❤
Right... No cell phones. Btw. How exactly you think she made and uploaded this video, genius?
Guess it was a bird that recorded and uploaded this clip?
Family time and offline life is very neglected, and it is terrible for people and society. But it's about finding a balance, like this lady. Utilizing technology when it is beneficial, but not centering it. Just declaring "phones bad" and "no tech good" is overly simplistic and just ends up sounding like a Boomer yelling at clouds.
i mean i dunno how this video was taking right? magic uploaded to internet by magic? these comments crack me up how exactly do you know they have no tv???because you didn't see one haha
I wish I was there with them ❤
I am not sure what you made, but it looked both fun to make and delicious! Put a smile on my face!
Living this way is so satisfying and stress-free
That’s why consumerism and capitalism thrive. To convince people this way of life is wrong and they need saving
Ngl looks like tamales, we make them on a pan in the UK, but in guatemala we had the proper equipment and we cooked it in a comal, traditionally they are wrapped in leaves that add flavour.
I find it interesting how much in common African have when it comes to food,am sitting here try to guess which foods it’s similar to.
This is ugali East Africa.
All Africans something similar. West Africa it's Fufu
It was similar to banku
In Italy we call It:"Polenta", but we Cook the flour in hot salted water and we eat It directly before It became full solid, with meat, fish or vegetable.
We call it “kawunga” in Uganda or “Ugali” like the rest of our East African brothers
Wow fascinating. I didn't know that you had this in Italy. Some countries make it thick and where i come from its not so thick and we eat it with different relish, beef, vegetable, chicken etc
We have similar like this in Karnataka as well..
Her skin is so clear. She's beautiful.
Yummy village life is creative
Here in Nepal 🇳🇵, that food item is called 'Dhido'. We Nepalese love Dhido. ❤️
At home ( Uganda) it's called posho
@@rahmaahmed4129 it's not rice, isn't it?
That definitely looks like ugali or more informally named fufu. It's good with a hearty soup, cooked greens (cassava leaves)....
Ugali unaonekana mtamu... Love from 🇹🇿 🇹🇿 🇹🇿
M.from.India, n why this looks little similar to our traditional food ??
😅😅 we make such thing with maze flour n garlic n green chilly, it tastes so damn awesome❤❤
Oceans of blessings y'all
you make me want to VISIT UGANDA SO BADDD. im in Love with the sense of community in this entire video
my favorite food proud to be an African from Uganda
One of the beauties of our continent is that as a Mozambican I am familiarized with what is portrayed in the video. There are some differences but a lot of similarities. We are a community ❤
I am from Ethiopia and I am familiarized with so many of the things as well. Different countries, but we have so many common things. One Africa ❤
Me too! I am Nigerian 🥰🇳🇬
The way you live your life is so beautiful and inspiring.
Can you explain what exactly this dish is. Like what is it made of etc. Please❤
It's made of maize flour
They just mix maize flour with boiling water
They call it ugali in Tanzania
@@deepikareddy3262 ohhh woww i really love learning about new communities.
Adding to the previous commenter:
In Uganda they call it Posho.
It’s eaten with some kind of sauce (generally that is often how food works in UG: some kind of carbohydrate with a sauce). I believe they are eating beans as a sauce in the video!
@@vivigoesusa you answered my question! I asked what the sauce is. Also I have seen fufu before I'm not sure it looks really good
Kenya 🇰🇪 pia ni ugali 😂😂😂❤
Nothing like sharing a meal. 💛 What’s the name of the food you made?
I think its fufu
Posho
Ugali?
@@lunamoo8 fufu is made from cassava flour but this one is called posho or Ugali made from Maize flour
@@agnesug3836 oh thank you did not know that. Learning new everyday 🌝
Your meal preparation is a lot of hard work. Phyical labor of love! I hope your family appreciates your delious meals. Peace ✌
Nothing like a meal wrapped in banana leaves! Love being African
