12 Carbs Found in a Marka Kitchen
12 Carbs Found in a Marka Kitchen
These are 12 carbs that you will find in a Marka home.
Bariid – Long Grain Basmati Rice
Rice is a staple in Somali homes. At the moment, the Manchester Somali community likes the Abu Kass basmati rice.
2. Baasto – Spaghetti
I feel the obsession with pasta might be a by-product of the Italian colonisation. Filsan is a great brand. We are indifferent to spaghetti or pasta.

Is Your Website Easy Enough to Use?
Is Your Website Easy Enough to Use?
Is your website easy enough to use? Can guests be able to find things easily? My friend Stephen gave me this book called “Don’t Make Me Think” by Steve Krug 2nd Edition. I learnt a lot about web usability and I thought to share what I’ve learnt.

Greek Moussaka - Somali Style
Greek Moussaka – Somali Style
Just like the British Shepherd Pie, Greek Moussaka is a new dish that we’ve included in our cuisine since coming to the UK. It is not something that we’ve had when we were back home. It is like our adopted dish. Moussaka is an eggplant – or potato – based dish, often including minced meat, in the Levant, Middle East, and Balkans, with many local and regional variations. My go to Greek chef is…

Chapati – The Do’s and The Don’ts
Chapati is one of those dishes, you know? You like it so much. You cannot live without it. However, you wonder, is it really worth the effort and time you put into cooking it? I mean what it is the probability you will end up with a fresh, hot, soft, layered, aromatic chapati anyway? You’ll never know until you try. To ease some of your worries I’ve collated some things you can look out for when…

We are making Shukulato Caano today! This is an old recipe. I was sitting in the living room going through my Facebook feed when I came across BBC GoodFood’s post about #chocolateweek2017. I mention this to my mot. She takes me to the kitchen and shares with me the recipe for Shukulato Caano.
Ingredients for the Shukulato Caano

Intro – New Year Resolution and all
I was not going to write about the new year because throughout the years I have learnt that life doesn’t reset at the new year! It resets like a hundred times throughout the year (for me anyway)! I do not wait for…

Mahambri Recipe | African Doughnuts | Beignets
Today’s post is a little late. Apologies. I share with you the recipe for Mahambri. Mahambri is a dish served either in the morning with Mbaazi, or during Ramadan with Sambusa (Samosas) and Viazi Vya Karai. It is similar to Beignets (fried dough food), and even though I am yet to taste one, they look similar in colour and texture in my opinion. Beignet, synonymous with the English “fritter”, is…

Basbousa Cake Recipe Review | Without Semolina Flour
Basbousa Cake Recipe Review | Without Semolina Flour
Basbousa is a native Egyptian and traditional Middle Eastern sweet cake. It is made from cooked semolina soaked in simple syrup. Coconut is a popular addition. The syrup may also optionally contain orange flower water or rose water. I will be making this cake but with no semolina or syrup. Something you don’t know is that I have food neophobia. Food neophobia is generally regarded as the…
