Kenyan Cooking

Since I am marrying a Kenyan, I have to learn how to cook Kenyan foods. Cooking still remains a challenge for me. People are such good cooks here. It seems like they can whip up an amazing meal with just a few ingredients. This evening, I got a cooking lesson from George's brother, Dave. They had been cooking with a charcoal oven only since the gas tank ran dry.



Because the charcoal stove and I are enemies, I asked if we could fill the tank. Once we did, I felt much better about cooking.



The best way to learn is by doing so Dave instructed me on what to do while I cooked. The results were not bad... beef wet fry, sakuma wiki and ugali. Yes, I made ugali. For the second time!



I was told the meal was a success! I wrote down how to make everything and am excited to try it on my own. While I did make progress tonight, some things remained the same. I can't cook without something going wrong...



I set the towel on fire twice.
